ComboBox.DropDownWidth Property

Definition

Gets or sets the width of the of the drop-down portion of a combo box.

public:
 property int DropDownWidth { int get(); void set(int value); };
public int DropDownWidth { get; set; }
member this.DropDownWidth : int with get, set
Public Property DropDownWidth As Integer

Property Value

The width, in pixels, of the drop-down box.

Exceptions

The specified value is less than one.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to create an owner-drawn combo box by setting the DrawMode property to OwnerDrawnVariable and handling the DrawItem and MeasureItem events. It also demonstrates setting the DropDownWidth and DropDownStyle properties. To run the example, paste the following code in a form. Call the InitializeComboBox method in the form's constructor or Load event.

internal:
   System::Windows::Forms::ComboBox^ ComboBox1;

private:
   array<String^>^ animals;

   // This method initializes the owner-drawn combo box.
   // The drop-down width is set much wider than the size of the combo box
   // to accomodate the large items in the list.  The drop-down style is set to 
   // ComboBox.DropDown, which requires the user to click on the arrow to 
   // see the list.

Remarks

If a value has not been set for the DropDownWidth, this property returns the Width of the combo box.

Note

The width of the drop-down cannot be smaller than the ComboBox width.
