Change only some properties of a MultiComboBoxItem autochild

[PSimonazzi]

Hello,
I'm trying to customize some properties of the ComboBox autochild of a MultiComboBoxItem.

MultiComboBoxItem item = new MultiComboBoxItem();

ComboBoxItem props = new ComboBoxItem();
props.setUseClientFiltering(false);
props.setHint(null);

item.setComboBoxProperties(props);

The issue is that apparently the default ComboBox autochild is heavily customized inside the MultiComboBoxItem, and simply setting a new comboBoxItem as will reset all those properties.

Getting the default properties instead of creating a new instance also does not work:

MultiComboBoxItem item = item.getComboBoxDefaults();

The result is that the default MultiComboBoxItem looks like this:

But if we set the combobox properties it loses its styling and defaults:


Is there a way to only set some properties, or inherit the defaults?

Thanks

That API is already designed to only apply certain properties, so the fact that the styling for the combo box is somehow destroyed probably indicates some kind of invalid usage - at the skin level, or with changeDefaults(), or perhaps in CSS usage itself, such as invalid selectors.

Try again in a clean project with a default skin and you should see the problem correct itself, then you can troubleshoot from there.
