[Bug 20570] New: In vb6 drop down combo width cannot be altered

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20570

Summary: In vb6 drop down combo width cannot be altered
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.32
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

when running wine version(1.1.32) on osx(winebottler), it has been discovered
that drop down boxes do not expand to the width of the longest data row, when
the following code at 
www.http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?p=593960 
is run.
The problem also occurs when running wine(stable) on centos 5.3

I have just started using wine, but I am guessing that either:-
i) The set statement between vb6, or the corresponding win code, and the
linux(X) gui is missing, or
ii) The X drop down widget does not have a modify drop down width setting, or
iii) none of the above  :)

Basically, 
SendMessage(mCombo.hwnd, CB_SETDROPPEDWIDTH, PixelWidth, 0)
does not work.
The drop down width stays at the initial combo box width, as set when the
control was initially layed out.
Or, the drop down combo width cannot be changed.

thanks

peter

> ii) The X drop down widget does not have a modify drop down width setting, or

Wine manages and draws its own widgets. (And X itself doesn't have any widgets
- you need a toolkit like Gtk or Qt for that.)
> SendMessage(mCombo.hwnd, CB_SETDROPPEDWIDTH, PixelWidth, 0) does not work.

CB_SETDROPPEDWIDTH appears to be implemented (dlls/user32/combo.c, line 2165).
Are you sure this is the problem?

http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/?a=blob;f=dlls/user32/combo.c;hb=HEAD#...

Have you tried writing a reduced testcase in C? (i.e. so it's not some weird VB
problem).

I can confirm this problem in 1.3.26. The SendMessage always return CB_ERROR
(as it's possible to see in the source code from previous comment) although it
sets the value droppedWidth correctly.

The main problem is that the bounding box is calculated when the object is
created and then no more updates are made. Even if new items are added. On
Windows the droppedWidth value is used correctly after changed.

I'm building some test cases and cross testing on windows.

Created an attachment (id=36218)
 --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=36218)
Compiled test

This is fixed by
http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/commit/7c76a79ffa199c892f9d555bc12e2dd...

I have added several different tests to wine and the attached .exe can be used
to test too. Press combobox down button and you will see a list of items that
has the same size from the combobox, then use the button below to change the
combobox dropped size to 100, reopen the combobox and you will see it's larger
=)

It's possible to try setting any other value too in the bottom-left textbox.
