Description Elias Volanakis CLA 2011-02-08 02:18:25 EST 
Back in October we added something to the CComboRidget to allow setSelection(...) to "select" an element that is not in the list. In that case getSelection(...) returns the element, but getSelectionIndex() returns -1.

I've asked Steffen via email for a quick reminder why we needed this funtionality.

If we need it -- we should allow it in all variants of a combo, i.e. Combo, CCombo, CompletionCombo. That means moving that code up to AbstractComboRidget.
Comment 1 Elias Volanakis CLA 2011-02-08 21:07:20 EST 
This was moved down to AbstractCompletionCombo. It is now allowed in all variants of the ridget.

Resolved.
