I've found a drawing bug of the property grid with long items. I've tested it also without the skinframework but no difference. Here are the screenshots and steps to reproduce it:

1) Item with combobox, show tooltip for long string:

2) Move the mouse cursor to the right above the combo box button:

3) Move the mouse cursor up to the other date item button:

Hello Oleg,

I've modified the sample to reproduce the bug. The problem occurs if the property grid is not hosted inside a static control.

I've replaced the placeholder with DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_PROPERTY_GRID, m_wndPropertyGrid);.

The property grid also flickers a lot in that case if you resize the dialog.

Hello,

I not really like that you subclass "STATIC" control to PropertyGrid. We register special Windows Class - "XTPPropertyGrid"....

Anyway if you don't create it using Create method you have to be sure it has clip styles. Modify styles in resources or add in code:

m_wndPropertyGrid.ModifyStyle(0, WS_CLIPCHILDREN | WS_CLIPSIBLINGS);

... also set Notfy style of your STATIC control to handle click events... Now you can't resize Bottom Help area.
