Matt,
    Is there any date/special area we can use to download the source? That would definetly simplify the "overriding".
Thank you,
Anatole

I’ll file a request for the dropdown but I don’t know the reasons behind its structure.  You can at least use ComboBase as a starting point if List won’t cut it for you.  As for introducing more interfaces, we had them at one point and I think we found that it was getting out of hand without much value.  The source is going to be available so you should be able to copy and modify for the ones that don’t work out exactly as you need.

Matt,

    Is it possible to downgrade ComboBox::dropdown property in the next beta/final release to ListBase so the subclassing/ability to show more complex dropdowns is possible? Also, what are the chances of relaxing base types of the internal properties of the controls a bit (when it does not affect performance) from strongly typed to lower levels/split them to interfaces.

    Without code decoration/polymorphism in the base objects the current architecture is much more code and time consuming for control development and can be showstopper for 3rd party controls.

 

Sincerely,

Anatole

labelField isn't necessary if you have a cell renderer.  Any chance you
can just use labelFunction if all you're doing is concatenation?  I'm
almost positive variableRowHeight also isn't going to work.

good call, but it didn't work.  Really weird. Do you think I still
need the labelField attribute?

TIA,
George
