Anyone created or has an idea how to create a custom
button that looks the same as the dropdown button on the
combo box in xp style.
Easy enough for non-xp style as standard flat style
allows the paint event to draw button as
ControlPaint.Dr awScrollButton( e.Graphics,
button2.ClientR ectangle,Scroll Button.Down,
ButtonState.Nor mal)
but as XP style requires flat style system, paint
nolonger has any effect.
Thanks

Set the "FlatStyle" to "System" and add a manifest file to your app
directory. On XP, it will work the way you want it. HOwever, in other
systems, you will have to draw it yourself.

You can also enable XP visual styles by using:
Application.Ena bleVisualStyles ( );
make sure you use this code before the initializecompo nent( ) method.

I'm creating a multi-column dropdown since there isn't one. My idea
is to override an Infragistics Combo and add the dropdown as a grid
object. So I create a basic override of the control. The first thing
I want the control to do is kill the default button and add a new one.
So in the initialization (New) area of the control I add the code to
do that:
Me.DropDownButtonDisplayStyle =
Infragistics.Win.ButtonDisplayStyle.Never

Hello,
I have written my own custom control and I want one of its properties to
display as a dropdown list when clicked, so the user can select from the
list, it would be similar to the asp textbox control which has a 'TextMode'
property and when clicked on, displays as a dropdown list with 3 values, I
want to have a similar type property with a dropdown style.

I have a drop-down list the I want to use to control the visibility of
button fields. Here's an example of one of my button fields,
<asp:ButtonField Visible='<%$ Code:ddlReason.SelectedValue =
Status.Review %>' CommandName="Review" Text="Review" />
The value of ddlReason.SelectedValue within the custom expression is
constant even if I select another value from the dropdown. Why does
this occur?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
