When the total number of items in the list exceeds the value specified by the MaxDropDownItems property, a scrollbar is displayed.
Note: The number of items that are displayed in the visible portion of the dropdown list includes items in the MRUList.
Note:
Each item displayed in the list portion has its own Infragistics.Win.AppearanceBase object; as such, each item can have a different height, based on the size of the font the item uses. When this is the case, the MaxDropDownItems property will not function as expected. To avoid this scenario, it is recommended that all items in the list use the same font size.Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load 'Add 8 items to the combo Me.UltraComboEditor1.Items.Add(1, "One") Me.UltraComboEditor1.Items.Add(2, "Two") Me.UltraComboEditor1.Items.Add(3, "Three") Me.UltraComboEditor1.Items.Add(4, "Four") Me.UltraComboEditor1.Items.Add(5, "Five") Me.UltraComboEditor1.Items.Add(6, "Six") Me.UltraComboEditor1.Items.Add(7, "Seven") Me.UltraComboEditor1.Items.Add(8, "Eight") ' This combo should always be in edit mode, Me.UltraComboEditor1.AlwaysInEditMode = True ' Turn on auto-complete for Internet Explorer type auto completion Me.UltraComboEditor1.AutoComplete = True ' Office XP look and feel.
