ComboBox DropDown Width

[Senthil ramna]

I am using Radcombobox version 2009.1.311.35.
In this i wanted to increase the dropdown width as some of the text were of larger length, so i set the DropDownWidth size to 240px and the width of my ComboBox is 150px (standard i am using in all my pages).
The question is this how can i make sure that the DropDownWidth will increase and decrease itself based on the size of the Items in the list. I found this http://www.telerik.com/help/winforms/combo_propertiessizing.html which looks pretty cool, where i can set the maximum and minimum DroDownSIze for the ComboBox, but this is for winforms.
Can you tell me how i can achieve the same for ASP.NET AJAX ComboBox.

Hmmm, it might be hard...never tried it myself actually....especially with those older control versions...but it renders (at least now anyway) as Divs and ULs...so some clever CSSing probably could do it on the DropDown class somewhere...

Hello Senthil,


I found a code library regarding how to set the DropDownWidth according to content. I hope this would help you.
