Long texts in ComboBox's Items

[Boris Condarco]

Hi,

I have a control that holds a ComboBox. When the ComboBox gets filled the
text are too long, so, it is possible to read just the half part of the
text. I would like to show the whole text in a box (like the tooltipbox)
while the user moves over the ComboBox's Items. Does anyone can share some
code to do this?

Thanx

Boris

You can set the DropDownWidth of the combobox or you could try this:

.... but I'm not sure how easy it will be to adapt to the combo box.
