C# WPF Combobox select first item

C# WPF Combobox select first item

To select the first item in a WPF ComboBox in C#, you can use the SelectedIndex property of the ComboBox and set it to 0. Here's an example:

// Assuming you have a ComboBox named myComboBox in your XAML markup myComboBox.SelectedIndex = 0;

Alternatively, you can also use the SelectedItem property of the ComboBox and set it to the first item in the Items collection. Here's an example:

// Assuming you have a ComboBox named myComboBox in your XAML markup myComboBox.SelectedItem = myComboBox.Items[0];

Both of these approaches will set the ComboBox to the first item in the list. If you want to set the ComboBox to a different item in the list, you can change the index or item in the code accordingly.
