How can I recreate the Excel 2007 Number format combo box which displays icons and additional description when the user clicks on the drop down?
Thanks.

For the record I managed to fake this by a custom size icon and writting the caption onto it at runtime.

Hi Oleg, I upgraded to 11.2.0 which had the new ListIconID property for combo box. But it doesn't seem to work as expected. Const ID_AUDIO_TYPE_WAV=3000
Const ID_AUDIO_TYPE_MP3=3001
Const ID_AUDIO_TYPE_WMA=3002
Const ID_AUDIO_TYPE=2999 Dim oCb As XtremeCommandBars.CommandBarComboBox Set oCb = GroupEncode.Add(XtremeCommandBars.XTPControlType.xtpControlComboBox, ID_AUDIO_TYPE, "")
With oCb
.ListIconId = ID_AUDIO_TYPE_WAV .AddItem "Encode As WAV" .AddItem "Encode As MP3" .AddItem "Encode As WMA" .ListIndex = 1 .Style = xtpButtonIconAndCaption .Width = 150 End With The Commandbar is associated with an imagemanager control containing icons for the respective IDs.
At runtime, the icon appears only on the last item in the dropdown and also it displays the wrong icon. It displays the icon for the 1st item for the last item.
Here is the runtime snapshot.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
ListIconID specify base id - for first item. So obviously you have icon for ID_AUDIO_TYPE_WMA id but not for ID_AUDIO_TYPE_WAV and ID_AUDIO_TYPE_MP3

Is this going to be in 11.2.1?
Will it be possible to create a gallery like this image?

I am using the beta build to test: Dim GallerySlide As CommandBarGallery Set Popup = CommandBars.Add("Thumbnails", xtpBarPopup)
Set GallerySlide = Popup.Controls.Add(xtpControlGallery, ID_SLIDE_LIST, "") With GallerySlide .Style = xtpButtonIconAndCaption .Width = 480 .Height = 420 End With This is still drawing a gallery with icons and the caption as tooltip. What did i do wrong?
Thanks

Nevermind. I needed to add sufficient width to the gallery item to make the caption appear.
This works great.

Is it possible to wrap the caption or have a multi-line caption for this style? |
