There is no API for this. You might find an old discussion of this problem in the archives. I think you have to get the dropdown, add an eventListener for “show” and/or “move” and reposition then. You may also have to adjust the scrollRect.

Is there any way to do this? ________________________________ From: Alex Harui <aha...@adobe.com> To: "flexcoders@yahoogroups.com" <flexcoders@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Wed, November 18, 2009 6:39:23 PM Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Combo box right-anchor Setting dropDownWidth will make it wider, but you may not like where it puts the left edge.
