Jesus, the funny thing is that I use gb.qt4 and I have this very long top to bottom list in Linux Mint 17 Mate.
Maybe it is not 100% depending on the toolkit used. Those are my settings: [System] Gambas=3.5.4 OperatingSystem=Linux Kernel=3.13.0-24-generic Architecture=x86_64 Distribution=Linux Mint 17 Qiana Desktop=MATE Theme=QGtk Language=nl_BE.UTF-8 Memory=3686M [Libraries] Cairo=libcairo.so.2.11301.0 Curl=libcurl.so.4.3.0 DBus=libdbus-1.so.3.7.6 GStreamer=libgstreamer-0.10.so.0.30.0 GStreamer=libgstreamer-1.0.so.0.204.0 GTK+=libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.2400.23 OpenGL=libGL.so.1.2.0 Poppler=libpoppler.so.44.0.0 Qt4=libQtCore.so.4.8.6 SDL=libSDL-1.2.so.0.11.4 2014-10-01 11:25 GMT+02:00 Jesus <ea7...@ea7dfh.com>: > El 01/10/14 a las #4, Alain Baudrez escribió: > > I have quit using the combobox because its behavior with long lists > really > > pisses me off.
