Hello,
 
Is it possible to adjust the width of the dropdown menu for a combobox? The width of the menu seems to match the width of the combobox itself.
 
Now when I use a dropdown instead of a combobox, the width of the menu seems to adjust based on the length of text in the list. But this does not happen with a combobox. I need a combobox because of the searching capabilities.
 
thanks,
Jake

    Adjust Combobox dropdown menu width
     
    If you will use the modern Combobox, you will get a horizontal scroll in your combobox which would let users view the whole option text by scrolling. 
    The classic Combobox is still showing most of the value but not the full length of it (no horizontal scroll)
     
    Hope this helps. 
     
    Kind regards, 
    Nandit
