SWT Combo resize dropdown list (show more items)

my SWT Combo has a lot of items and the dropdownlist always shows only 5 items at the same time. (yes I can scroll up and down to see all the other items)

I want the dropdown list to show more items at the same time e.g. 10 items at the same time.

How can I make the dropdown list, to show more items at the same time? Has anyone an example? Thanks Jochen

Call the Combo setVisibleItemCount(int count) method to set the number of items that are shown.

Note that the JavaDoc says:

This operation is a hint and is not supported on platforms that do not have this concept.

So it may not work on all platforms.

Alternatively use the CCombo control which also has a setVisibleItemCount that does work on all platforms.
