drop list won't drop [message #9926]

I have crerated a dropList on a tab and added a few items to it (value,key pairs).

i can display one value with the SetIndex() method just fine - so I know they were actually there. But when I click on the dropList nothing happens - it won't drop down to display all added lines at once.

what am I missing?

Hard to say. Please provide more clues, best in the form of compilable package Wink

tab is created with the layout manager. the name of the droplist is objectSelector.

the only line in my code that is relevant to this selector reads:

tab2.objectSelector.Add(0, "object1").Add(1, "object2").SelectIndex(1);

(there is no callback added, yet...I'm typing from memory here, since I don't have access to the machine this is on until tomorrow morning. so don't crucify me if there are any typos. the program compiles and runs fine (with the exception of the above mentioned bug))

After I compile (with theIDE on Windows XP) I see the droplist on the appropriate tab and the value "object2" displayed in it. but clicking the 'drop down arrow' does nothing. all other widgets on that tab work fine.

just for the hell of it i added another tab with nothing but a droplist on it. same problem.

even adding a forced drop ( by adding ".Drop()" to the end of the above mentioned code) doesn't work.

All that sounds good. But I still have too little relevant info - there must be something else.

Just for the record, droplists in TabCtrl usually do work, check e.g. Setup/Environment in TheIDE...
