Filter Combobox issue in IE in Smart GWT 2.0

[mnprasad]

The filter combo boxes are blinking while selecting for the first time. From the second time it is working properly. Try selecting the combo box filters multiple times in IE to reproduce the issue.

In Smart GWT 1.x versions, there used to be problem in filters while typing the text, the text we typed used to be get selected. This problem is resolved in 2.0, but the above new issue is introduced. I observed this issue in below scenarios.

1) The filter editor combo box should be free form selection. to achieve this, I used the below code.
continentField.setFilterEditorType(new ComboBoxItem());
If I did not use free form typing (just selection is enough), it is working fine.

2) The filter editor must contains more than one combobox item.

3) There is no issue with Firefox, the issue is with only IE.

I am attaching the stand alone test case. Please throw a light on it, and let me know the resolution for the issue. (The same test case is working fine with Smart GWT 1.x versions in IE).

Can you elaborate on the "blinking"? What exact is blinking and when?

What OS are you on?

Can you reproduce the blinking on any other machine?

Have you run this in a clean project with no third party CSS?

"blinking" in the sense drop down is closing with in fraction of second when I try to open it. From the second time on words there is no issue. I think the problem might be due to the fact that, when the drop down is getting opened for the first time the cursor is moving its position to that drop-down text box.

I am using Windows XP, and the issue is only observed in IE (tried in IE7/ IE8). I am not using any third party CSS.

On review, this appears to be constructed to run within the Showcase, and not as a standalone test case. Can you reproduce this outside of the Showcase?

[mnprasad]

I am posting a standalone test case. This issue is only with IE and I am using smartGWT 2.2. I observed that when the cusor is in one combo box item and if we try to open other combobox item, we can see this behavior.

Thanks for the simple test case - this made it easy to reproduce.
We've now fixed this issue -- the fix will be present in the next nightly SGWT build
