New Control : ComboBox
ohhsodead opened this issue · 3 comments
Hello, friend
Are there any ideas for adding or other implementations of workarounds for a control?
Thanks you.
I do remember looking in to implementing a ComboBox originally, however I never had an actual use case for it.
If you look through the .NET reference source you can see how the default WinForms control operates:
https://referencesource.microsoft.com/#System.Windows.Forms/winforms/Managed/System/WinForms/ComboBox.cs,e83c7b91eda8635a
You could implement similar functionality by glueing together a DarkTextBox and DarkListView.
Another option I used quite extensively is taking open-source implementations of controls and modifying the drawing code to use the DarkUI colours instead.
Having a quick search around I found this, which may offer a shortcut:

In terms of developing an official DarkUI ComboBox control, I'm afraid I'm no longer actively working on extending the library out as I now work exclusively on cross-platform UI frameworks.
I'm happy to take a pull-request if you end up developing this though!
Good luck. Feel free to re-open the issue if you need any more help with this.
@ohhsodead I have a pull request that adds a DarkComboBox here: #19 I realise this is very late, but if you're still using the library can you check if that's what you need?
Hello! Nice to see you're working on this project again! I will wait until actual source is updated then will update my copy too.
