Controls like this can typically be found on a toolbar of applications that support some form of search functionality. On the Mac this control is implemented using the native HISearchField control, on the other platforms a generic control is used, although that may change in the future as more platforms introduce native search widgets. If you wish to use a drop-down menu with your wx.SearchCtrl then you will need to manage its content and handle the menu events yourself, but this is an easy thing to do. Simply build the menu, pass it to `SetMenu`, and also bind a handler for a range of EVT_MENU events. This gives you the flexibility to use the drop-down menu however you wish, such as for a history of searches, or as a way to select different kinds of searches. The ToolBar.py sample in the demo shows one way to do this. Since the control derives from `wx.TextCtrl` it is convenient to use the styles and events designed for `wx.TextCtrl`. For example you can use the ``wx.TE_PROCESS_ENTER`` style and catch the ``wx.EVT_TEXT_ENTER`` event to know when the user has pressed the Enter key in the control and wishes to start a search.
