[SOLVED] ComboBox Style property

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

It seems that the CJ ComboBox ignores changes to the Style property when placed on a UserControl (and at runtime). Is there any way that we can change this property at runtime, or is it technically impossible?

Thanks.

EDIT: SOLVED IN 12.0.1. Thanks!

	Hi Jason, I believe it's not possible to change the style in runtime. Once I wanted to change the style too and I have looked on the internet for solutions but nothing found... But maybe the CJ development team can change this and break trough the brickwall Microsoft has built

	Hey Aaron, I kinda figured it was an MS limitation since the same problem exists with their control...I hoped there was a way around it. The CJ TextBox control allows you to change the Multiline property of a TextBox at runtime where the MS one does not (for example), so I was holding out hope that the same might be possible for the Style property. It's not that big a problem, I just have the extra overhead of placing 1 ComboBox of each style on my user control and managing visibility based on my exposed Style property.

	vbaccelerator did it by destroying and recreating the underlying window in new style (whilst caching and reapplying list items, selection etc). maybe cj can add this at some point.
