How can i make the combobox's list bigger in height, so it displays more than 1 option at a time...At the moment my combo list displays just 1 option at a time, and id like it to display at least 3 or 4 at a time...i dont know if you understand what im talking about...
Thank you very much,
Cherry
You can use a listbox instead of a combobox, is also a list of options but it haven't got the side button to open the dropdown list (instead you can declare the WS_VSCROLL style to let the user to navigate through all the options, and also can set LBS_DISABLENOSCROLL to hide the scroll bar when the list have no hidden options.
Hope that helps

hmm ya i tryed that too, but it wont solve the problem...it still displays 1 option at a time...and the scroll bar is just 2 buttons(1 to go up and the other down), theres no scrollbar...
The easiest way is, when declaring the combobox, set the height bigger. The height property of the combobox is actually the height of the list when extended + the height of the combobox. The height of the combobox when the list is not extended is determined by the font size.
Speaking of comboboxes, I can't even get the list to come up.
I declared the combobox as follows
& Tried to add a string to it:Code:CreateWindowEx(WS_EX_LEFT, "COMBOBOX", "0", CBS_DROPDOWN |
CBS_AUTOHSCROLL | CBS_DISABLENOSCROLL | CBS_HASSTRINGS | WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE,
140, 65, 350, 500, hwnd, (HMENU)1999, GetModuleHandle(NULL), NULL);
where char *outputstack = "5607.000000";/ / outputstack can have that value for nowCode:SendMessage(GetDlgItem(hwnd, CTRL_OUT), CB_ADDSTRING, 0, (LPARAM)outputstack);
