Editable Combobox not saving edited text

MTOLANI

I have a editable combobox which is showing suggestions on entering text.
But if I am editing the current text, its not being saved.
After I make changes, it goes to onAccepted method in Combobox, finds the currect index but does not save it.
When I click on some other page and come back the combobox is back to the previous selection.
Please help.

ComboBox leaves it up to you to decide what happens when the input is accepted. See the example in the docs:

ComboBox {
    editable: true
    model: ListModel {
        id: model
        ListElement { text: "Banana" }
        ListElement { text: "Apple" }
        ListElement { text: "Coconut" }
    }
    onAccepted: {
        if (find(editText) === -1)
            model.append({text: editText})
    }
}

After I change any value, my code goes to onAccepted method in ComboBox and does not hit the method I have written here.
Is there something which I am missing out?

my code ... does not hit the method I have written here.

I don't know what method you are talking about and how is it connected to this. I'm afraid we need to see some code to be able to help further.

@jpnurmi
I assume OP means/claims the onAccepted is not hit, with the above example as copied from the specified https://doc.qt.io/qt-5.10/qml-qtquick-controls2-combobox.html#editable-combobox link.

Hi thanks for your help.
I had earlier written the method as :

category.onAccepted : {
console.log("Print onAccepted");
}

The below code solved the issue.

Connections{
        target: category
        onAccepted : {
           console.log("Print onAccepted");
        }
    }
