Sorry to resurrect this, but I hit this problem myself recently.

My solution:
Use a ListView in Report mode, instead of a Listbox.
The same problem exists for long text, but at least you can add a tooltip for each item (or subitem) containing the same text.

Would be nice if the Listbox and Listview controls could be updated to display the text of long items without this work around.

Hello,
I want to add long items to a listbox and I encountered the following matters:
- when i hover the mouse pointer on the long items, it doesn't show up the whole text
- I cannot add a horizontal scrollbar in order to view the whole text
Is there a solution to access and view the whole text of the long items from a listbox?
