Hi,
I have an adxribboncombobox with list of items. For checking, if user types in an item that's not in the list,
I use the "onchange"-method.

In there, I check the text of the ribbon with the content of list. If it's not in, I reset the text of the ribboncontrolwith a default text.

This works fine ... AFTER THE SECOND try of inserting a "not-in-list-item".
If I start Outlook with this ribbon and the combobox,if I insert text and leave the combobox, the method is called. Method does his code ;-) and no "new" text is updated in the combobox :-(

First time: fail. Second an all other tries: everything works.

Can you help me ?

Bernd

I shortened it and can show it here :-) 


private void AdxRibbonComboBox_Sendungsprio_OnChange(
            object sender,
            IRibbonControl control,
            string text)
{
	adxRibbonComboBox_Sendungsprio.Text = "Nicht angegeben";
}


It only do no refresh the first time. After that, it works.

Hello Bernd,

I can't reproduce the issue using the project at https://temp.add-in-express.com/support/MyAddin5-BerndH.zip.

Oha ... I found it.Change this, and you can reproduce: 

public AddinModule()
        {
            Application.EnableVisualStyles();
            InitializeComponent();
            // Please add any initialization code to the AddinInitialize event handler
            adxRibbonComboBox1.Text = "not specified";

        }


As a workaround I left the combobox empty on startup ;-)

Either I don't see the issue or I can't recognize it. Could you capture a video?

Okay, I recorded a "professional" video with my mobile :-D
Here it is.
Changing and leaving the combobox for the first time didn´t show "not specified". Re-Enter the combobox and change... everything works ...

Yes, that's a sure sign of a profi. :)

Thank you. I don't see this issue. What Outlook build are you using? Please capture a screenshot showing the area located *to the right* of the About Outlook button. If that area is empty, click the button and capture a screenshot of the About Outlook window.
