Hi,

I think that have a bug in the EO ComboBox control (or in the ListBox into the respective DropDownTemplate), when I put the Combobox into a EO Flyout.

When the flyout is shown and I click on the ComboBox control, the respective Listbox appears under the Flyout control instead over it, as below.



And, when I leave the mouse on the Flyout, it disappears, but the Listbox keep showing, as below.



To illustrate the bug, I made a small ASP.NET/VB.NET application to demonstrate it. To download the file "2011Test.zip" you can access ftp://ftp.camarate.com.br and using the account "eoweb2011" and the password "test2011".

The application is very simple. When you pass the mouse over the flags image, the Flyout control is shown, and you can check the bug.

Thanks in advance, Marcelo Camarate

Hi,

This behavior is by design. The Flyout control is at the top of the z-order because it is designed to be a "light weighted" control that does not accept any input except for simple mouse moves and clicks. Usually controls that require less input are on top of controls that require more input. For example, a dialog usually requires more input than a DatePicker drop down, so DatePicker drop down has a higher z-order than DatePicker. As a result, you would not want to use a ComboBox inside a Flyout.

Thanks!
