A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
See #8129123
Since there does not appear to be a way to add a comment for a bug report I am requesting a feature -- that this issue be addressed. I can verify that the expected behavior still is not present in 9.0.4.
JUSTIFICATION :
TableView and ListView both have the needed scrollTo() feature.
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
When a selection is made that is not in the visible rows the ComboBox should scroll to the selection or at least, allow programmatic scrolling.
ACTUAL -
The selected value is hidden in the not visible rows
---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
Any combobox where selection is made programattically (i.e. a search for a value) and the selected value is outside the visible rows.
---------- END SOURCE ----------
CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
I am going to have to redesign my input Scene Graph. I will replace the ComboBox with a button which, when pushed, displays a Dialog with a ListView or a single column TableView that provides the scrollTo() feature. This will undoubtedly work but it will be clumsy.
