Presumably you know whether the combo is being expanded or
contracted, so set a flag indicating its state and use the flag to
either process the Paint event or not. That's usually how I manage
'conditional event handling'. I would expect it to work with the
Paint event as it does with other events.
David: Thanks for the reply. I had thought of something like your
suggestion, in my current project can make it workable, and will
probably have to resort to something like this.
I'm fishing and hoping for something more elegant. Perhaps one of the RS
insiders knows why when its list is displayed the built-in RB combo
doesn't trigger a paint event on the control it is obscuring, and
whether there is a way to achieve the same functionality from a
container control.
