VCL dynamic controls creation

[rcloutie]

I'm build a new VCL based on TListBox. I've added a new property 'Caption' which creates a BitBtn on top of the ListBox. The problem is that the Caption (bitbtn) hides the first 2 items of the list.

Is there a way to change the inherited Top property but not the VCL component one?

Thanks

In the components Cconstructor, set
Listbox.Height := 24

A tip, look at the sourcecode for the delphi-created component called TLabeledEdit.
This is a small component buit by 2 different components, much like your new component...

There is always another way to solve it, but I prefer my way.

Hi Nordlund,

Can't find TLabeledEdit source code anywhere...
Any internet address from which I can download it?

Thanks a lot in advance
