Combobox Chevron misalignment

Hello all!

I have a classic controls combobox in an App, where the chevron gets misaligned when the App is published - looks fine in Studio, and looks misaligned in the published App:

have you seen this before? Do you know where it might come from?

Thanks!

Hi @ValeriaBreve,

What is the width of that Combo Box ? It appears it may be wider than the Data Card. If you want to stop it (example) 10 pixels short of the right Data Card border, make the Width
Parent.Width - Self.X - 10

Hi @WarrenBelz, thank you. Setup is

(it's not a form - I am patching from the controls) - where the width of the combobox cmb_action_owner_HS is

Parent.Width-Parent.PaddingLeft-Parent.PaddingRight-txt_explanation_action_owner_HS.Width

I have tried to make it slightly smaller as you suggest, you can see it becomes visibly shorter, but the chevron is still misaligned...

Thanks for your help!

Hi @ValeriaBreve,

I still think you are overlapping the right margin (of the container) - do you really need it to end right on the right edge of the container ? This works for me
Parent.Width - Self.X - Parent.PaddingRight

You might also want to leave a right margin
Parent.Width - Self.X - Parent.PaddingRight - 10

Hi @WarrenBelz, this is how it looks like if I remove some width from the combobox:

It appears shorter (and better - I think it's the scrollbar that makes it look like the box is too short), but the chevron is still misaligned. And again this is only in the published App, not in the App Studio - there is always renders correctly:

I have to admit I have never had this before..

Hi @ValeriaBreve,

I have never seen it myself, hence the suspicion of the right margin intrusion. Is the issue on mobile devices or browser or both ?

hello @WarrenBelz, the App is embedded in PowerBI and I have protected it so that the controls only appear when the user selects a single record from PowerBI - so from my mobile I cannot see anything in the App directly, but when I go to PowerbI in "mobile" mode I do see the same issue...

Hi @ValeriaBreve,

OK - that may change things a bit - the further you envelope apps in other things, I suspect the greater chance of controls not resolving properly. However that is only a guess as I have never seen this particular anomaly before.
