Ok, so Upp adopted a more uniform strategy and not "allows" to easy change some controls properties because that could easly cause negative visual effects, right?



Well, I think it is a little bit more complicated than that:

In DropList, there are two 'visuals' to be considered:

- how the droplist "stable" parts look - means e.g. appearance of frame or that drop down button. This part can be altered by chameleon Style. Default Style attempts to imitate typical host platform appearance.

- how the value (content) looks like. This is much more common and you can do it using Display. See e.g.:
