Listbox won't display horizontal scrollbar when using OwnerDrawFixed mode...?


Any idea on how to manually activate the horizontal scrollbar on a listbox?

I'm using ownerdrawfixed mode to color list items and it seems to work ok,
but the scrollbar won't show at all.

greetings, The listbox control on my aspx page has a vertical scrollbar. But some of the text extends beyond the right limit of the listbox. I don't see a horizontal scrollbar, and I don't see any scrollbar properties in the property sheet in vs2003. Would this be a styles item? If so, how to invoke. If not, is it possible to invoke a horizontal scrollbar? how to do that?

I have a simple application that has a listbox for displaying text in it. The functionality of it is to color particular parts of the text that is displayed from a file. I have used similar coding from http://www.dotnet247.com/247reference/msgs/12/60727.aspx as a reference for coloring the text. The problem I am having is that when the text of the listbox is longer than the size of the listbox, the horizontal scrollbar will not show up....

I am handling the Listbox DrawItem event to enable the listbox strings to be displayed in different colours for easy reading. Have set ScrollAlwaysVisible and HorizontalScrollbar to true. I Anchor the listbox T, L, R, B on the parent form The string items held within the listbox are quite big, much longer than could be displayed within the Listbox display area.

How do I make a ListBox display the horizontal scrollbar if the text of any of the items in the ListBox exceeds the width of the ListBox? Unlike the vertical scrollbar which gets displayed automatically if the number of items in the ListBox exceed the height of the ListBox, the horizontal scrollbar doesn't get displayed automatically when the text of any of the items in the ListBox exceeds the width of the ListBox!

Hi All, I've got an owner drawn listBox where I draw and measure the items that I add to the listBox. For example, I have a listBox that can only display 10 characters on each horizontal line. The majority of my items contain much more than 10 characters and thus the reason for my use of owner drawn listBoxes - I do not want to use a horizontal scrollbar, instead I want the text of each item to wrap onto multiple lines. I do use a...
