Hi, I have a combo box which contains long texts that does not fit to the drop down window. So I want to show long texts as a wide hint window if mouse is over the text or the text is selected by arrow keys. I have been used OwnerDrawFixed as combobox style and so I am able to detect which item is just "active". Now I need help how to create this hint window? You can also suggest alternative way to solve the problem. - KaKe -
