Control hide/show notification

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

   Hi, if you hide an edit (or combo) control and then show it again later, the control does not remember the text (or list data) that it previously contained!   I have not been able to find a notification message to tell me that the control has been shown again so that I can re-initialise it, is there such a notification message? 
If not can you please add one, or better still just hide the control instead of destroying it when it�s not visible, that way it won�t lose it�s existing data and the program can just continue to �talk� to it without having to check if it still exists or not? 
Thanks.
