Georg Nozicka commented on RF-10953:
------------------------------------
I would like to extend this issue a little bit because I think it is related to it. In
former Richfaces versions the autocompleteMethod was also called, if e.g. cursor down was
pressed (with minChars=”0” and no characters entered so far). This was quite handy,
especially if you have not too many possible results and someone has no idea what could be
entered. As it is now, a workaround is to enter a space and trim the input in the program
logic, but just pressing cursor down is far more user friendly. Another user solution is
to try all the letters from ‘a’ to ‘z’ but this is not such a good way to figure the
possible values out.

Key: RF-10953
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-10953
Project: RichFaces
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public(Everyone can see)
Components: component-input
Affects Versions: 4.0.0.Final
Reporter: Mette Hummel
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 4.Future
We have upgraded to 4.0.0.Final and there is a change in behaviour for the
rich:autocomplete component. We set minChars="0" and
showButton="true". If we click on the button without entering any keys the
autocompleteMethod is no longer called as it was previously. This must be a bug since it
works fine if minChars>0 the autocompleteMetod is called.
