Hi there,

When you select an item of an editable combobox via "SelectGadgetitem" (not by hand) the return value given via "SelectedGadgetitem" states that it's still unselected (Result: -1).

The following example runs perfectly under Windows (Result: 0), but fails under Linux (Result: -1).

Code:

Strict

Import MaxGui.Drivers

AppTitle = "Selected item No 0"

Global window:TGadget = CreateWindow( AppTitle, 100, 100, 300, 200, Null, WINDOW_TITLEBAR|WINDOW_STATUS )
	
	CreateLabel( "COMBOBOX_EDITABLE: ", 5, 59, ClientWidth(window)-10, 24, window, LABEL_LEFT )
	Global editcombobox:TGadget = CreateComboBox( 5, 83, ClientWidth(window)-10, 26, window, COMBOBOX_EDITABLE )
	For Local i:Int = 0 To 10	
		AddGadgetItem editcombobox, "Item "+i
    Next

    SelectGadgetItem (editComboBox, 0) '<- Select the 1st ITEM of the combobox 

	SetStatusText window, "Item chosen: " + SelectedGadgetItem (editComboBox) '<- returns -1 = unselected

Repeat
	WaitEvent()
	Print CurrentEvent.ToString()
	Select EventID()
		Case EVENT_GADGETACTION
			Select EventSource()
				Case editComboBox
					SetStatusText window, "Item chosen: " + SelectedGadgetItem (editComboBox)
			EndSelect
		Case EVENT_WINDOWCLOSE, EVENT_APPTERMINATE
			End
	EndSelect
Forever
