Beta 5 and Combo boxes
« on: March 19, 2007, 03:51:39 PM »
Anyone else noticing a problem with combo boxes?  A simple drop-down won't, well, drop down.  I swithced back to the beta 4 arx and that fixed it - so it's not a lisp problem populating the control.

James, Beta 5 now honors the previously ignored DropDownHeight property for combo boxes. Check the value of that property. The default value is 100. If that isn't the problem, I'd say a bug report is in order.

appears to be a bug.  dropdown height is set to default 100, but won't drop down.  I'll post at sourceforge.

Kerry - the odc file is at: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=923363&aid=1683980&group_id=187950

This is the code to populate the drop-down:

Code: [Select]
(Odcl_ComboBox_AddList
    jb03_01_OBJ
    (list "Walls"    "Doors"     "Windows"      "Storefronts"
  "Curtainwalls"   "Ceiling Grids"  "Spaces" "Spaces - Auto Generate Tool"      "Stairs"
  "Railings"    "Structural Grid"      "Roof" "Schedule Tags" "Schedules"))

I'd need to see the complete solution James to help find the issue ... but that works for me ..

this is a piccy of what I get :
ps: I only have Vanilla ...

added:
normally the load would be (OR (ODCL_PROJECT_LOAD "jb03" ) (EXIT))
but I use the reload flag for testing ..
