I am hoping that someone out there can help me. I am trying to get the wxChoice control to behave under X-Win-32 5.40 when connected to a Red Hat Linux computer. When the choice control has a long list, the popup window extends below the screen with no scroll bars. It works perfectly under windows, but I can’t seem to find a way to get it to display in a usable manner on the X-Win. Below is code from the demo that has been slightly modified to show the problem.
Any ideas?
