Description Christian Campo

Currently when an entry is ignored we signal that with a flashy/blinking red background color (very short). I (we) think it would be better to flash withe error marker that is active. So either control decoration or if you have BorderErrorMarker then flash with that one.

That would be true for every widget where we do that. I list the one's that I have in mind.

- some cases for textfields or MaxLengthValidators where an ignore char is showed by blinking
- CompletionCombo (if entry must be in the list) if no entry is found (quit possible that there is no blinking yet
- maybe Date, Decimal, Number fields for non numeric entry.

anything else

Blinking is handled by 320017 (dupe, my bad). This coners validation and Date, Decimal, Number fields.

Renaming this entry to be about flashing the CompletionCombo. -- This needs more investigation: The problem is that the blinking is handled via the marker support  (=ridget) while the input validation of CompletionCombo is done entirely in the widget (=no ridget, no marker support). 

Maybe a good item for my next sprint.
