COMBOBOX metro

[Otto]

Hello Antonio,
I have problems with comboMetro.
Although I have no blank field inside the array which I display in a comboMetro the combobox shows blank rows.
Please see the attached screenshot.
Please can you help me.
Thanks In advance,
Otto

Hello Antonio,
I use comboMetro of FWH.
I noticed that comboMetro is working correctly if the upper and lower border are inside the parent window.
If not there are on the side which is opposite to the side which is outside the parent window blank lines.
Best regards,
Otto

The interface is designed so that always the highlighted item is displayed exactly in the same position as the original control. When the topmost item ( "01" ) is highlighted, this item is shown at the same position of the control and blank space is shown above this item. Same way when the last item is shown the space below is displayed blank.

But in any case, the user can not navigate in to the blank space or can select a blank item.

If you feel the design should be different, please indicate.

Dear Mr. Rao,
Thank you for you answer.
I looked into WINDOWS 8 Setup and made some tests with comboboxes. There are no blank lines shown.
I think we should change this.
Best regards,

Is someone working with this class and can confirm this behavior?
