I wasn't sure what this caused... But now I know it's ONLY the shadow of dropdown menu of Commandbars. Strange though, that this wasn't reported already. And as always I created a test for this  

 

 

Here it is: https://forum.codejock.com/uploads/20090311_111649_frmOptions.zip - uploads/20090311_111649_frmOptions.zip

 

Just run test and click menu > click buttons of menu (each time clicked will delete button and will resize dropdown menu) > This works OK because ShowShadow = False

 

Now check ShowShadow > second menu item (including buttons) will be created > repeat previous > shadow doesn't clean up

 

 

 

 

 

Nothing strange that nobody reported it before - you have CloseSubMenuOnClick control that delete self in Execute - don't think somebody has it in real application :)

Do you really have such task or just digging bugs ? :)

 

In fact I have such option. I have an option to load several files at once and I want to display the loaded files names in menu (just like a windowslist) Contents of files will be loaded into ReportControl and user has an option to delete only those records in ReportControl which he/she selected in menu. I don't want to use CloseSubMenuOnClick because you have to click too much (is also part of popupmenu) that's why I noticed this problem.

 

Do you really think I want to dig up bugs? Do you know how much time I spent on creating test for something like this? 

 

But I have a few options myself for this:

btw If you don't want me to report these kind of bugs, just tell me... I will have more time for my own applications

 

 

 

I want :), I very appreciate all your help !  Seriosly :)
