Hello,

We fixed this with
    int nUnusedWidth = m_nWidth;
    PX_DPI_X_Int(pPX, _T("Width"), nUnusedWidth, 0);

Regards,

Hi Codejock Team,

the width related code in
void CXTPControlComboBox::DoPropExchange(CXTPPropExchange* pPX)
{
    CXTPControlPopup::DoPropExchange(pPX);

    PX_Bool(pPX, _T("DropDown"), m_bDropDown, TRUE);

    // The Width property is already serialized in CXTPControl
    // so in order to avoid double DPI scaling it must not be read twice (ticket 35575),
    // however the value still must be read out to provide format backward compatibility (ticket 36079).
    int nUnusedWidth = 0;
    PX_DPI_X_Int(pPX, _T("Width"), nUnusedWidth, 0);
    UNUSED(nUnusedWidth);
    ...

is not correct, once again.
In XTP1700
PX_DPI_X_Int(pPX, _T("Width"), m_nWidth, 0) was called twice; the two writes did no harm but the two reads somehow changed the member in case of HighDPI (when XTP_DPI_X returns a modified value)

In XTP1801
PX_DPI_X_Int(pPX, _T("Width"), m_nWidth, 0) was called only once (in the base class) and for us, everything was fine (serializing to XML)

In XTP1820
- PX_DPI_X_Int(pPX, _T("Width"), m_nWidth, 0) is called in the base class
- PX_DPI_X_Int(pPX, _T("Width"), nUnusedWidth, 0) is called again in CXTPControlComboBox::DoPropExchange
Now writing is buggy:
- the base class (CXTPControl) writes e.g. Width=150 into xml
- the derived class (CXTPControlComboBox) writes Width=0 into xml and... gone is the 150

My guess is the code in the derived class should only be called in the read case (IsLoading=true)

I would appreciate it very much if the bug was fixed in the next version.

Thank you and best regards,
Michael

Ive done some, and it seems that if we do not load commandbars on launch, then the CXTPControlComboBox have a width that normal.
But when we load the commandbars the CXTPControlComboBox have a width of 0.
It looks like all combos in the XML file look like this:

<Control Class="CXTPControlComboBox" Type="5" Id="7005" HideFlags="128" TooltipText="Control Text" Width="0" Height="0" CommandBarId="16777260" DropDown="0"/>
while in 16.4 of CodeJock this combobox would have Width="128".

We have seen a similar issue with 18.2.0 where ComboBoxes have almost no width.

In save mode (schema _XTP_SCHEMA_1700), the code below is wrong, "Width" will always be saved with 0.

void CXTPControlComboBox::DoPropExchange(CXTPPropExchange* pPX)
{
CXTPControlPopup::DoPropExchange(pPX);

PX_Bool(pPX, _T("DropDown"), m_bDropDown, TRUE);

// The Width property is already serialized in CXTPControl
// so in order to avoid double DPI scaling it must not be read twice (ticket 35575),
// however the value still must be read out to provide format backward compatibility (ticket 36079).
int nUnusedWidth = 0;
PX_DPI_X_Int(pPX, _T("Width"), nUnusedWidth, 0);
UNUSED(nUnusedWidth);

Introduced in version 18.2. I don't understand the comment.
