Hi,

I have heard many times that widgetsets like Win32 and Qt doesn't
allow TComboBox to be resized.  Or makes in very difficult.
Apparently the widgetset will automatically adjust the Height of such
a component.

Mantis contains bug reports as follows:
  http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=10840


I'm just curious.  Why would the widgetset want to force autosize on a
TComboBox, but not on a TEdit?  A TEdit also contains text and can
have different font styles, it just doesn't contain a embedded button.
 So again, why can TEdit be resized at will, but TComboBox not. I fail
to see the reasoning (technical or otherwise) behind that.

PS:
I know this is not something introduced by LCL, but rather the
underlying native widgetset.


Regards,
