Ad Pijnenburg commented on FLEX-34643:
--------------------------------------
I think it's more like a DropDownList - the ComboBox includes a Textarea that
triggers the keyboard when you touch the rectangle area in stead of the down
arrow at the right.
Indeed, both ComboBox as DropDownList are discouraged on mobile devices as the
ASDOCs state. There has been some discussion as to whether this can be solved
by adding a mobile skin only; other code changes might be necessary as well -
e.g. see
[http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5977957/flashbuilder-4-5-dropdown-list-for-mobile-application]
and
[https://github.com/Flextras/FlextrasComponents/tree/master/mobileComponents].
However, I have tested both components on a Nexus 5 (running Android 5.0) (see
newly attached images). Clearly with the desktop skins these controls are too
small for touch interaction, but opening and scrolling the list (which is
mentioned as one of the issues with implementing these components on mobile) is
no problem on my device (tested with a dataprovider containing 21 items).

> One of the Android 4 button types (usually giving access to a selection drop
> down list or date/time dialog) has the appearance of transparency with a
> bottom border line including a small triangle at the bottom right (see
> attached image).
> Could this specific Android button appearance be implemented in any of the
> new Android4 skins?
