Attribute combobox in conditioncontrol - autocomplete with Like operator instead of StartsWith

Open piyushpaliwal opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

In the ConditionControl there is a combobox for Attribute selection. As of now, it filters results with a StartsWith operator; it would be great if we can implement the same functionality with a like or contains operator. I have seen a lot of my peers (including myself) struggling with the exact schema names for attribute selection and to overcome this issue we always have metadata browser plugin run alongside FxB to make sure we are picking up the correct attribute

Thanks for the suggestion! That could be tricky tough, this control just uses the standard ComboBox control behavior. Appreciating any suggestions or pull requests! :)

This hack might do the trick, but it looks a bit.... hacky. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2259067/override-winforms-combobox-autocomplete-suggest-rule

I will consider implementing it, maybe. Better suggestions are welcome!
