From: Christer Nilsson Date: 2006-04-11T03:41:36+09:00 Subject: FXRuby ComboBox problems: First problem: The empty alternative shows just about two pixels in height. "" "male" "female" How can I get the full height? Second problem: The leftmost characters in the combo has a lighter background color. The number of characters seem to equal the shortest string " " # shortest string "male" # m has lighter background "female" # f has lighter background How can I get the correct background color everywhere in the combo? These are minor problems, but disturbing. I really love the speed and the API of FX, so I'm not ready to switch yet. some code: # Win XP, FXRuby 1.4.3 width = 10 cbo = FXComboBox.new(@parent, width, nil, 0, COMBOBOX_STATIC) cbo.appendItem(" ",0) cbo.appendItem("female",1) cbo.appendItem("male",2) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
