BUG: Changing Appearance Property Reduces ListBox Height
This article was previously published under Q191858
When the Appearance property of a ListBox control is changed at run-time,
the height of the ListBox control is reduced.
Set the IntegralHeight property of the ListBox to False at design-time.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article.
Steps to Reproduce Behavior
- Start a new Standard EXE project in Visual Basic. Form1 is created by
default.
- Add a ListBox control and a CommandButton to Form1.
- Copy the following to the Code window of Form1:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Debug.Print "Appearance property = " & List1.Appearance & _
" Height property = " & List1.Height
If List1.Appearance = 0 Then
List1.Appearance = 1
Else
List1.Appearance = 0
End If
End Sub
- Open the Immediate Window. On the Run menu, select Start, or press the
F5 key to start the program. Click the CommandButton. Note that every
CommandButton click causes the ListBox height to change.
If you set the IntegralHeight property of the ListBox to False, the bug
behavior does not occur.
