26 @class wxOwnerDrawnComboBox
27
28 wxOwnerDrawnComboBox is a combobox with owner-drawn list items.
29 In essence, it is a wxComboCtrl with wxVListBox popup and wxControlWithItems
30 interface.
31
32 Implementing item drawing and measuring is similar to wxVListBox.
33 Application needs to subclass wxOwnerDrawnComboBox and implement
34 OnDrawItem(), OnMeasureItem() and OnMeasureItemWidth().
35
36 @beginStyleTable
37 @style{wxODCB_DCLICK_CYCLES}
38 Double-clicking cycles item if wxCB_READONLY is also used.
39 Synonymous with wxCC_SPECIAL_DCLICK.
40 @style{wxODCB_STD_CONTROL_PAINT}
41 Control itself is not custom painted using OnDrawItem. Even if this
42 style is not used, writable wxOwnerDrawnComboBox is never custom
43 painted unless SetCustomPaintWidth() is called.
44 @endStyleTable
45
46 @see wxComboCtrl window styles and @ref overview_windowstyles.
47
48 @beginEventTable{wxCommandEvent}
49 @event{EVT_COMBOBOX(id, func)}
50 Process a wxEVT_COMMAND_COMBOBOX_SELECTED event, when an item on
51 the list is selected. Note that calling GetValue() returns the new
52 value of selection.
53 @endEventTable
54
55 @see Events emitted by wxComboCtrl.
