more issues.
changing height, fontex dimensions at runtime causes expanded dropdown.

border not always contains full control, sometimesmissingon right.

why no onshowhint event?
no popupmenu?

Gee, let me repeat myself.

This is not the BGRA issue tracker. You were told where that's located.

I'm not your secretary, and I don't care whether it gets fixed.

Stop being lazy and file the bug report.l

I don't know what version of those controls you are using but for me, my first exposure lead me to memory leaks.

For example:

   BCLeaEngrave control, using Heaptrc reports un-freed memory. I fixed that my self in the DRAW section and it got fixed with a few other things that got discovered at the same time.

 I don't think a new package has been offered OPM ?

 But in any case, you should check for that because it could lead to memory leaks in the IDE at some point.

It is available when custom drawing the items.

Sometimes, there isn't a reason. It is possible to add some events if you find it useful.

Regarding the PopupMenu, that may be confusing having this menu and also the dropdown. However, if you find it useful, it can be added.
