Unable to set selected item text propery from viewmodel unless IsEditable="True" but not IsEditable="{Binding boolvar}"
The below code will show the text property but editable. How to make the combo box non-editable and programmatically set the selected item and selected text
<telerik:RadComboBox x:Name="MAccountHead" DisplayMemberPath="{Binding SelectedType.TypeDesc, Mode=TwoWay}" SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedType, Mode=TwoWay}"
HighlightTextColor="Blue" ItemsSource="{Binding Typ}" Text="{Binding SelectedType.TypeDesc, Mode=TwoWay}"
HeightRequest="45" PlaceholderColor="LightGray" Placeholder="Main Head"
Grid.Row="4" Grid.Column="1" BorderThickness="0,0,0,1" IsEditable="True">
<telerik:RadComboBox.Triggers>
<DataTrigger TargetType="telerik:RadComboBox"
Binding="{Binding FormVal.TypeErrorVisible}"
Value="true">
<Setter Property="BackgroundColor" Value="Bisque"/>
</DataTrigger>
</telerik:RadComboBox.Triggers>
</telerik:RadComboBox>

Hello Renjith,
Thank you for the code snippet.
I tested this on my side and the code seems to work as expected. One possible cause for the behavior you described that I could think of, would be if the SelectedItem does not match an instance in the source collection.
For example, `this.SelectedItem = this.Items[2]` would work but `this.SelectedItem = new City() { Name = "London" }` will only work if the Equals method of the City class is overridden so that two objects with the same Name property value are designed to be equal.
I am sending you the sample project I set up and used for the testing. Could you please modify it so I can try to reproduce the unwanted behavior on my side? If it's more convenient, you could send me a sample project on your side so I can see the setup from the ViewModel.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation on the matter. I am looking forward to your reply.
