I need your help!!!

I tried this code, but somehow it doesnt work.

var lst = Listbox1.rawValue;
if (Listbox1 && Listbox1.selectedIndex > -1){
xfa.host.setFocus(Listbox1.setItemState(Listbox1.ListCount - 1) = true);
}

the reason why I am doing setFocus is, because when the Listbox1 gets populated the visible area is limited and the scrollbar appears only if you click on the listbox.

But the user should be able to see automatically when the amount of items exceed the listbox by focusing on the last selected/ added item.

Please help me on this!!!!

Thank you in advance!!

Hi,

you can do this the following way.

To preselect the last item in the list box use this script in the enter:event.

Hi,
thanks for the code!!

unfortuantely, it's not working!! i also tried to set focus on the list where the items are populated with this code but nothing happens. the last populated items is not highlighted/ selected.
what can I do??

I appreciate your help!!

Try it in the mouseEnter:event.

Nope it doesnt work in mouse enter or initialize or any other events...

maybe this code is not appliable to my listbox, what do you think?

Sure it is...check out this sample

hi,

your code is apparently only working for single selection listboxes.

Thanks,
