Determining ListBox's Size

Postby avengre » Wed Dec 15, 2010 14:13

Hello, i'm currently creating a framewindow, with a listbox on the inside. I would like to resize the framewindow to accomodate the entire contents of a listbox, however I can't figure out how to either set the ListBox to expand to full size, or how to get the Unclipped / Unscrolled size of the client area. None of the accessor functions i've been able to do what I need done.. Suggestions?

The unclipped dimensions only apply to the window itself, in this case the listbox, not it's children. So you want the 'unscrolled' size. I do not believe there is any function to pull this size directly. However, you should be able to calculate it yourself by adding up each item's size.

But the padding? That's in the XML only...

Something else:

If Listbox & ListboxItem are deprecated, how do we do dropdown lists?

...

ItemListbox and ItemEntry, the non-deprecated objects, do not have any way to automatically make dropdown lists, like the deprecated ones do.

This is a problem.
