How do I have the drop down width of an UltraCombo (or UltraComboEditor) be wider than the actual control?

Jamal posted over 16 years ago

I have data to load in either an UltraCombo or UltraComboEditor that is wider than the space I have for the control. How do I make it so that when dropped down, the exposed list is as wide as the data I'm displaying, even though that's wider than the actual control?

Thanks in advance,
J

Hi,
What you are describing is the default behavior of the UltraCombo. If it's not doing that, you must have changed something. Maybe you set DropDownWidth to something other than the default.
I'm not sure about the UltraComboEditor, but you might want to check the documentation on DropDownWidth. There are certain settings like 0 and -1 that have special meanings.

Mike,

Thank you for your prompt reply. I have just added the UltraCombo fresh, set its datasource to a datatable, and hidden the column headers in the InitializeLayout event. I also hid some of the columns in that event. Of the only two columns that I am showing, the length of the data of one of the columns is greater than the width of the control. What settings should I have in place?

Thanks again,
Jamal
