Hi Tim

Another non-critical one - I have a combobox on my status bar and when I
click it the items drop downwards and push the bottom of the browser
window up. If possible it would be better to have them pop up above the
combobox.

Cheers, Bob

Bob,

Is the combo box extending beyond the desktop space ?

Hi Tim

I've attached an image that shows the behaviour - an area of whitespace
appears and my controls are pushed upwards.

But I've also noticed another problem. I'm using embedded forms and I
resize them (and adjust the control layout) as the browser window
resizes. This isn't working for vertical layout.

The dropdown shows a resize history for both height and width as the
browser window is resized, but only Application.Desktop.Width is
returning a changed value - Application.Desktop.Height is constant.

Cheers, Bob

Okay, thanks.  I'll see what I can do.

Is the Desktop set to a fixed height, or auto-height ?  (Project Options).
The height will only resize automatically if the height is set to
auto-height.

That was the problem - thanks.
