    Hi there,

    Is there a reason why the arrow of a dropdownlist combobox is not the same one as a standard combobox (dropdown only)?

    Hello

    Style of comboboxes may be different, so, arrows are different too.

    That makes sense.

    Where can I specify the arrow glyph for the dropdownlist combobox?

    If I am right, the arrow glyph for the dropdown combobox can be specified in the COMBOBOX section under the Glyphs tab, but I can't find the place for the dropdownlist arrow.

    This arrow is drawn automatically now, using a font color.

    Custom glyph can't be defined.

    Can I ask to add that feature?

    Could be a second glyph in the COMBOBOX section.

    Edit: I would like that feature so I can have an arrow of a different shape that an small triangle. More like the arrow in Windows 10.

    I found out from the skin FM, which has the same arrow for dropdown and dropdownlist comboboxes, that there is a hidden property for the BUTTON section.

    You can specify the same glyphmask of the combobox into the BUTTON section and it applies that glyph instead of the boring arrow on dropdownlist combobox.

    Yes, you are right, the glyph property in a section does the trick.
