Hello
I think I've discovered some kind of bug here:
I have a ListBox control. I fill its content through DataSource property.
First time I set its width equal to ListBox.PreferredSize.Width, no matter what the real preferred width is, it is set to 120.
From the second time use of PreferredSize.Width it works fine: the width is changed according to the content.
class MyCtrl:UserControl{ ListBox lb; public MyCtrl() { ... lb = new ListBox(); lb.Visible = false; lb.Width = 50; //initially the width is set to 50 this.Controls.Add(lb); ... } public ShowMyListBox(string[] data) { lb.DataSource = data; lb.Width = lb.PreferredSize.Width; //even though initially the Width is set to 50, lb.PreferredSize.Width returns 120 on the first call //but the following calls returns reliable preferred widths. lb.Visible = true; }}Interesting... Is it a bug? Is there any way to fix it?
