Summary: wxSTC AutoComplete menu broken with native wxListCtrl

Initial Comment:
The attached patch to the STC sample can be used to test this. Build the patched sample and use Edit->AutoComplete to activate the AutoComplete menu.

When the menu is activated, the first option is selected. Pressing the down arrow selects the second item in addition to the first (which should have been de-selected). No further cursor navigation is possible. Items can be correctly selected using the mouse however.

Not sure if it's related, but I've seen very similar behaviour from a wxListView but haven't yet been able to produce a test case.

Hey, I didn't close it - you just beat me to re-opening it!! :-). The
default native control should certainly work correctly as well.

Thanks, but let's not close this just yet. I'm glad the workaround works
for you, but I'd like to leave this in the tracker so I can look at
removing the need for the workaround. Assigning to me.

Thanks Robin - that seems to work around both the STC and ListView
problem.

Try adding this:

    wxSystemOptions::SetOption(wxT("mac.listctrl.always_use_generic"),
true);
