Description:
I use DBLookUpComboBox to quickly find records by typing the first few characters in the box, without having to use an underlying datasource. In r29735 this works very well. I set the ListSource, Listfield, and KeyField properties while leaving blank the Datasource and DataFields properties. I assign a Listsource that has an ordered dataset, and set Sorted property to True. Then I obtain the KeyValue to see which record the user selected.
This is how Delphi's TDBLookupComboBox behaves.
Now with the latest revision no typing can be done in the box with the exact same properties set. The user must click on the arrow icon and then navigate with arrow keys, which is very cumbersome.
I tried it under both Linux x64/GTK2 and Win32 with identical results.
Additional information:
To reproduce one can use the DBLookUp example available in the distribution under examples/database
