wxComboBox incremental searching

2008-11-10 Thread Brian Donorfio
Using a combobox with wxCB_SORT | wxCB_READONLY, there's a rather useful incremental search feature when you type. However, the search times out after about a second without any keystrokes, and assumes you're starting a new search from the beginning. Is there a way to change the length of the timeo
