I have a scenario where the UI looks like this:
[textbox] [textbox] [textbox] [ultracombo]
I am using the ultracombo which has 3 columns. When a user selects a row, I fill out the textboxes.
Is there a way to only show the "down arrow" for the combobox or a button which opens up the combo box?
My current workaround is to resize the ultracombo to only show the down arrow, but then the position where the dropdown displays is off
Ok, thanks.
Is it possible to change the dropdown arrow to a different image? I am thinking if I can change it to something like a lookup icon, then it would be good enough.
Hi,
There's no way to remove the text portion of the Combo. What you are doing, sizing the control so that only the button shows up, is probably the best way to do what you want here.
In addition, you probably also want to set the DropDownStyle on the Combo to DropDownList. This way, it will never allow the user to edit the text.
Another option might be to use a different control, like UltraDropDownButton with a PopupControlContainer. Basically, this would give you the ability to have a button that drops down any control you want. In this cause, you could use a WinGrid.
Hello,
When you resize the UltraCombobox , dropdown section will appear as :
- If the control is smaller than the dropdown section , they will be left-aligned.
- If the control is larger than the dropdown section , both are right-aligned.
Another way to achieve that is to use other button that displays grid that was hidden before and contain the desired data. As far I can tell there is no built in functionality for changing position of the drop down section in combobox, you can see the following link for hints:

Please let me know if I can provide you any further assistance.
