Status Bar Add control

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

   I am tring to add a combo box to the status bar.   I can do so using the combo box provided with vb6.   When I try it with CodeJock's combo box it is displayed correctly until I click the on it.   It will disappear.

Example:
    Set Pane = StatusBar.AddPane(ST_Layer_Combo)
    Pane.Handle = cmbLayers.hWnd
    Pane.Width = 200
    Pane.Visible = True

	Place your combobox on a PictureBox then set Pane.Handle = Picture1.hwnd Meanwhile, In the PictureBOx Resize Event set the size of the combobox

	Thank you. I now have a problem with the height of the status bar. It does not fit the height of the combo box. The height of the combo box is 315.
