    Question Advanced ComboBox in WinForms

    Colleagues,

    Is there a standard (and free) control which is like a ComboBox, only better? Some of the potential features could be:

    * being able to control the font for each of the items individually
    * icons, checkboxes next to the items

    If such thing exists, could you post a reference? If not, then I’ll stop the wishful thinking and carry on with the standard ComboBox.

    Cheers,
    - Nick

    Or, crazy thought here; you could make your own . We are developers after all, develop something. You can already handle the DrawItem event to draw them yourself, get creative.
