Thats the question? Can a TCombobox display the options upward?
-
Yes, you put it near the bottom of the screen and then it goes upward. :)
But I don't know how to do it when it's not near the bottom of the screen.

Such a great idea!
I'll try to do one latter using only panels like in B.png.

There's ways to simulate that I guess.
use a TEdit, TupDown and associate it to the TEDit and then use a TPOPUpMenu populated with the list of items
The Popup can be shown at will at what ever location you want.
Or use a TFORM with a TlistBox inside it and show that any time from the TEDIT Box and automate that a little by closing the form when ever it loses focus.. I do that with a custom TreeView list inside a TFORM and I close it when ever the mouse goes out side of it.

It is not what exactly what OP want, but by adding a TEdit and some code, it can be a combo dropuplist:
