Hello,
I'm using a RadDropDownList control and i've noticed when handling the PopupOpening event, the sender object being passed is a RadDropDownListElement object and not the RadDropDownList control itself. Is there a way to get the RadDropDownList object from the RadDropDownListElement object? I need to get the parent control of the actual RadDropDownList control and i can't do this from the RadDropDownListElement object currently.
I have the same problem with the RadColorBox and its ValueChanged event handler returning a RadColorBoxElement object instead of RadColorBox.
Let me know if you need more information!
Thanks,
Hayley

Hello Hayley,
Thank you for reaching out to us.
You can get control from the ElementTree property. Here is how you can do that.
private void RadDropDownList1_PopupOpening(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)
{
var element = sender as RadDropDownListElement;
if (element != null)
{
var control = element.ElementTree.Control as RadDropDownList;
}
}You can try the same for the RadColorBox control. If you encounter a scenario in which the ElementTree.Control property is null, you can share it and I will try to find a suitable solution for you.

Thanks Dinko,
This is working for both RadColorBox and RadDropDownList!
