How to get ComboBox.SelectedText in WPF

Question

In WPF ComboBox does not have SelectedText property.

Is there a way to achieve the same functionality as TextBox SelectedText has in WPF

Answer 1

You can get access to the ComboBox's TextBox by using:

var edit = (TextBox)myCombo.Template.FindName("PART_EditableTextBox", myCombo);

Then you can access the SelectedText property of that TextBox:

var selectedText = edit.SelectedText;
