Combo box drop down width on suggest
(3 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
In the WinForms combobox, the width of the drop-down can be set programmatically, as in the following example, code and screenshot:
myComboBox.DropDownWidth = 300;
For the combo box, I have enabled the autocomplete:
myComboBox.AutoCompleteSource = AutoCompleteSource.ListItems;
myComboBox.AutoCompleteMode = AutoCompleteMode.SuggestAppend;
The autocomplete drop-down appears as follows:
How can I set the width of the drop-down containing the suggested items?

I believe that is not possible. You'll probably have to create a custom control to achieve what you need.
Here some information that might be useful for you:

Is there a way to hide resize & selection column when I add some data in DataGrid's ItemSource?
This is the row selector column and it can be hidden using the HeadersVisibility property.
<DataGrid ... HeadersVisibility="Column">
A value of Column show all column headers but hides the row selectors, see possible values here.

I have a WinForms CheckedListBox and when I click on an item, it checks it in the list (I have CheckOnClick set to True). I want to change it so that the user must explicitly click the checkbox in order to check that item.

C# WinForms Vertical Alignment for TextBox, etc
(5 answers)
Closed 7 years ago.
I'm trying to align the text in the middle to my textbox control in winforms.I also increased the height of the textbox by setting the multiline property to true. But when editing the text, the text goes to the top-left position. I want it to be in the same position,even on edit mode and normal mode.
I want to achieve it like
Excel-Normal mode and Excel-EditMode.Is this possible? Thanks in advance.
What you're thinking of is a RichTextBox.
I forget if it supports vertical alignment, though I'm sure there is a work around.

Can I display links in a ListView's detail mode?

In my windows application, I have a listview, which contains two columns. One of the subitem in a row contains the data as below.
"Failed testcase path=C:\temp\test.jpg"
I need to provide hyperlink to only C:\temp\test.jpg. If I click on the same, it should open the corresponding image.
I tried by changing the property HotTracking to true.
listView1.HotTracking = true;
But it shows hyperlinks to all the rows in listview.
Is there a way to achieve this?
Use ObjectListView -- an open source wrapper around a standard ListView. It supports links directly:
This documents the simple process and how you can customize it.

c# make textbox unselectable [duplicate]

How to make text in a WinForms TextBox unselectable without disabling it?

Closed 10 years ago.
I want to get the same functionality as Textbox.Enabled = false; so that the text in a textbox is not selectable at all but without the text changing to light gray. It should stay the same.
Textbox.ReadOnly = true; still lets you select it so that's not good.
And no it has to be a textbox not a label unfortunately.
Is this in WPF? If so you should use Textbox.Enabled = false; and change the styling so that this disabled textbox looks the way you want it to look.
