Scroll to top not working - c++

I made a special combo box, I used a QTreeWidget to display the drop down context.
Now I have a Problem, if the drop down is displayed the scroll bar is always scrolled down.
But I want it to be scrolled up. (It should be some history combobox, the newest entries on top)
I tried to overwrote the scrollToTop with:
void MyComboBox::showPopup()
{
QComboBox::showPopup();
view()->scrollToTop();
}
This isn't working, the scrollbar is still on the bottom.
Does anyone know why this isn't working? Or knows a better solution?
Thank you

I just solved it.
The problem was, that at the QTreeWidgets the attribute AutoScroll is true for default.
Disabling this solved the problem.

Popup LOV with multi select in Inline Dialogue has trouble with manual insert

I had an Inline Dialogue region with a page item being a Popup LOV. I needed to be able to select multiple values and be able to manually add more. But once I switched on multi-select the input field contracted to max-width 4px, the only way I found to fix that was to set the item to Stretch Form Item on and have it stretch out. But now came another problem. Now the manual entry was weird, you could only click on the first 4px(or the 4px after the last value if there were already values in there), and text you were writing was not visible until you stopped writing and clicked away.
So I was wondering how to fix this.
Running on APEX 19.2 btw, maybe this gets fixed in next versions
I found that if I hadnt set the Stretch Form Item parameter, max-width was set to 4px no matter what else I tried. If I did set it though, then flex-grow was set to 0.
So I just had the js that shows the Inline Dialogue fix this with a simple js command:
apex.item("P1_LOV").node.style.flexGrow = 60;
Its a simple fix, but it took me a bit to figure out so I wanted to show the answer here in case it helps anyone else

Qt QCombobox popup inconsistent position

I have searched far and wide and cannot find anything online about my issue even though it seems rather trivial, and i feel like there's just something I'm missing, so I apologise if the answer is apparent.
However, when I use a QComboBox in Qt, When I click on it instead of dropping down like I want it to, it shows the popup with the current selected item as the origin. If that doesn't make sense this is what I am referring to:
It shows the popup starting at the current selected item where the button is. I just want it to drop downwards like any other normal combobox! How can i Achieve this? If i make it editable it drops down exactly how i want it, but i don't want it to be editable!
Does anyone know what's up?
Edit:
I am running Windows 10

the combobox dropdown list is so small that an updown arrows appear beside it

I have comboboxes that was built on the OWL I moved them to MFC and I faced alittle problem, the dropdown list of the combobox is so short that it shows only one item and you can navigate to the other items by using udown arrows like in the picture
the image on the left shows the short and incorrect one, the one on the right shows the release version that is working well.
what can cause this problem? and hoe to fix it. think it is style issue
Open dialog template in Resource Editor. Select combobox by mouse. Click on the "Down Arrow" element in the right part of the combobox (in your case it may be left part, according to localization). Then resize the combo to required height - in this state it resizes dropdown list. Build application and test dropdown list height at runtime - it should be OK.

See also: CB_SETMINVISIBLE message - allows to resize dropdown list size programmatically. I have never use it in my programs, though, so this is just a hint.

C++ MFC CComboBox is empty

i've a little comboBox, and i want to fill it with 6 entries... .
i wrote this code:
CComboBox* dropdownList = ((CComboBox*)GetDlgItem(IDC_PROGRAMDROPDOWN));
dropdownList->Clear();
dropdownList->AddString(L"test");
dropdownList->AddString(L"test2");
dropdownList->InsertString(2,L"test3");
dropdownList->InsertString(3,L"test4");
dropdownList->InsertString(4,L"test5");
As you can see I tried AddString(), and InsertString(). both with no effect. I also tried it just with AddString() which should be the correct way at initializing it.
But, my combobox is empty. I already debugged it, and this lines are hit but with no effect.
Do you have any idea?
In the dialog editor, make sure you resize the ComboBox item so that its height is big enough to contain all of the items when the ComboBox is expanded. By default, it'll only be the height of the "edit control" bit of the ComboBox, which limits the expanded height.
So, in the dialog editor, click on the dropdown button bit of the Combo Box and you should see the drag handles change a bit. Drag out the new size to account for all the items in the dropdown list.
thanks for all your answers. But it was an ugly Failure by my IDE -.-. I just recreated the UI-Element and it worked...
I recreated it with the same properties (Copy & Paste)

combo box drop down is not working even after I changed the height in designer

I am trying to give a fix for a combo box drop down list, since its not listing down properly .Only one item is being shown in the list rest all you can see by using arrow keys. I increased the height in designer too, anyways that is not the issue, why because its listing down in some machines and the same version is not working on my machine. I used the DDX_Control to assign this control to a variable.
Do we need to consider any other things which can impact the drop down list??
environment : vs2008, windows 7
May be I didn’t explain the problem in the right manner. After some google search, I came to know that I should mention some more points here.
I embed this combobox in a dialog editor, there are already some comboboxes those are working fine.
They might be created with the earlier versions of VS. Even I tried to set the SetMinVisibleItems on this new combo, but always returns a failure.
The height of a dropped down combobox is indeed the height of the control in the dialog template. If you make your combobox tall enough in the designer, then it should show several lines when opened.
According to what you did, the correct behaviour is the other computers. The wrong behaviour is your computer.
No, there are no other things to consider when designing a combobox. Ues your debugger and try to find out why the height of your combobox was reduced on your computer.
That can happen if the No Integral Height combobox property is set to true, and the height of the listbox component of the combobox has been inadvertently set to that of the combobox component.
The dialog designer allows you to set both of these two heights. Click on the dropdown arrow icon and then the bottom node then adjusts the listbox component. Change that height to be what you want, and set No Integral Height to be false.
This doesn't explain why it works on other machines, but give it a try.
