Strange. I tried it after your screenshot. Very good tool this inspector, anyway.
I tried it also with the sample alone, with .SetMark and wx.CallAfter (SetMark, x, y).
None of that things worked.

Anyway, in the demo, after starting the combobox sample, the whole Text in the combobox
is selected. But then, I didn't got it to show the SetMark Selection.
Also I'm not 100% sure, but after call SetMark(4,7) afterwards (no selection was shown)I called GetMark and it outputs (7,7).
