I've tried both of these:
comboBoxToHour.SelectedValue = comboBoxToHour.Items.IndexOf("11");
comboBoxToHour.SelectedIndex = comboBoxToHour.Items.IndexOf("11");
...and neither one works and, in fact, neither does this:
comboBoxFromHour.SelectedValue = "11";
...nor this:
comboBoxFromHour.SelectedIndex = 12;
...which I find really odd.
I tried Ross' suggested fix, but with this:
if (App.roamingSettings.Values.ContainsKey("FromMonthSection1"))
{
if (comboBoxFromMonth.Items != null)
{
var item = comboBoxFromMonth.Items.FirstOrDefault(p => (p as ComboBoxItem).Content.ToString() == App.roamingSettings.Values["FromMonthSection1"].ToString());
...I get, "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." on the last line.
As it turns out, a simple way works after all. It turns out that this:
if (App.roamingSettings.Values.ContainsKey("FromMonthSection1"))
{
if (comboBoxFromMonth != null)
{
var item = comboBoxFromMonth.Items.FirstOrDefault(p => (p as ComboBoxItem).Content.ToString() == App.roamingSettings.Values["FromMonthSection1"].ToString());
if (item != null)
{
comboBoxFromMonth.SelectedItem = item;
}
}
}
...fails with, " System.NullReferenceException was unhandled by user code HResult=-2147467261 Message=Object reference not set to an instance of an object. "
...on the line assigning to item.
However, this:
if ((App.roamingSettings.Values.ContainsKey("FromMonthSection1")) &&
(!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(App.roamingSettings.Values["FromMonthSection1"].ToString())))
{
comboBoxFromMonth.SelectedItem = App.roamingSettings.Values["FromMonthSection1"].ToString();
}
...works.
Perhaps you want to use FindString
to workout the index:
comboBoxToHour.FindString("Name of a item")
eg
comboBoxToHour.DisplayMember = "Name";
comboBoxToHour.ValueMember = "Value";
comboBoxToHour.DataSource = aList;
comboBoxToHour.SelectedIndex = comboBoxToHour.FindString("Name of a item")
or since I've bound the combobox to a datasource I can use the SelectedValue:
comboBoxToHour.SelectedValue = "5";
It looks like you are not using a viewmodel so the .Items is a list of ComboBoxItem's. You are asking basically to compare a comboboxitem to a string, which it can't find, so it's selected the selected index to -1;
This code can achieve what you would like:-
var item = comboBoxToHour.Items.FirstOrDefault(p => (p as ComboBoxItem).Content.ToString() == "4");
if (item != null)
{
comboBoxToHour.SelectedItem = item;
}
Hopefully that will help.
To display first item of combobox :
List ModeOptions=new List() {"--Select Mode--","Driving","Walking","Transit"};
comboBoxOptions.ItemsSource = ModeOptions;
comboBoxOptions.SelectedItem = ModeOptions[0];
