I have a design question:

If you had to make a WPF Combobox with search support,
(= combobox that shows a popup with some Buttons, Search TextBox, List.. etc
the selected item feed to the default’s ComboBox TextBox.)
What would you do?

  1. Write a custom control (diretly inheriting from System.Windows.Control)
  2. Write a custom control inheritnig from Selector / ComboBox
  3. Make a UserControl
  4. Use a default ComboBox with a ‘special Template’ (CotnrolTemplate/Style ?) extended to search functionality
  5. Use a default ComboBox with style and attached EventHandlers..

Thank you guys !
