Seems a strange effect. Have you set any unusual styles like $WS_EX_COMPOSITED which can affect the order in which components are drawn?

Maybe you could try making sure that the components which are drawn over the top of the drop down list have the style $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS and are created after the combo.

Can you supply some code which reproduces the effect?

hello,

ok this is my creation-code:

$maingui = GuiCreate("DVB Shotter 5.45", 410, 155)
    GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "_Quit")

GUICtrlCreateCombo ("org", 175, 97, 42, 14, $CBS_DROPDOWNLIST)
GUICtrlSetData(-1,"40|80|160|240|320|480|640|800|K24", "org")

with this function, i set the windows ontop:

Func _ontop()
   Switch $top
      Case 0
         WinSetOnTop ( "DVB Shotter 5.45", "+ Original:", 1 )
         $top = 1
      Case 1
         WinSetOnTop ( "DVB Shotter 5.45", "+ Original:", 0 )
         $top = 0
    EndSwitch
EndFunc

I don't see anything wrong with that, but I can't run it and it doesn't show the controls which are drawn on top of the drop down list.

Can you supply some code which reproduces the effect?

ok, i attached a test.script.

when you start it, on the first gui just click

the bottomcentered button (dont need do anything else):

second screen, just click "setup":

in setup, just hook the bottom-left checkbox. bottomright-button

to switch back to main-gui:

then you could reproduce the effect.....

additional information:

i am running win7 #64bit

test.au3

before you test, look at the line 423:

FileInstall("dvb-shotter.cfg", $precfg, 1)

this could be a emty file. just create a txt file and rename it.

not the problem itself, but just changed the combo with a

popup-gui:
