How to Customize the NoResultsFound Text in the WinUI SfComboBox?

In this article, we demonstrate how to set a custom value or template when the user enters invalid input in the WinUI ComboBox control. When the entered text or item does not match with any item in the suggestion list, SfComboBox displays a message indicating that no results were found. You can customize this message using the NoResultsFoundContent and NoResultsFoundTemplate properties.

No Result Found Content

The NoResultsFoundContent property allows you to customize the text displayed when no matching results are found. The following code sample shows how to set the NoResultsFoundContent in the SfComboBox control.

XAML:

 <editors:SfComboBox  Header="ComboBox with No Result Found Text" 
                      PlaceholderText="Search a country" 
                      Width="300"   
                      NoResultsFoundContent="Not Found"
                      IsFilteringEnabled="True"
                      IsEditable="True"
                      ItemsSource="{Binding Countries}">
 </editors:SfComboBox>

NoResultFoundTemplate

We can customize the appearance of the desired text to be displayed for indicating no results found by using the NoResultsFoundTemplate property. Let’s see the example for the NoResultsFoundTemplate.

XAML:

<editors:SfComboBox  Header="ComboBox with No Result Found Template" 
                     PlaceholderText="Search a country" 
                     Width="300"   
                     NoResultsFoundContent="Not Found"
                     IsFilteringEnabled="True"
                     IsEditable="True"
                     ItemsSource="{Binding Countries}">
    <editors:SfComboBox.NoResultsFoundTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <TextBlock Text="Not Found" 
                Foreground="Red" 
                FontStyle="Italic" 
                FontSize="20"  />
        </DataTemplate>
    </editors:SfComboBox.NoResultsFoundTemplate>
</editors:SfComboBox>
