Sir,

I have two categories in combobox, Movies and News.

How do I add sub-categories when I select movies to become movie1 and movie2 sub-categories.

A non-elegant solution for starting, is to create an inner combobox, as a comboitem of an outter combobox. You can style them to improve the look of it, still, a treeview as was already said is the way to go and a must have skill with wpf/xaml development

Solution 2

I think what you really want is a TreeView. A ComboBox is not the appropriate control to display selectable sub-items.
