Ace popup horizontal scrollbar

[Shweta Karol Minhas]

Hi,

The popup list in my app contains many items that are longer than the popup width, but no horizontal scroll bar appears.

I tried using: 

        popup.setOption("hScrollBarAlwaysVisible", true);

But this adds a horizontal scroll bar without a scroll bar thumb to enable me to scroll to the right. What could be going wrong?

Hi
horizontal scroll doesn't work because of this

hack.

But should it add scrollbar or resizing the popup to fit contents is better?

Hi,

Thank you for your answer!

The api listing which makes up my custom completer has long method signatures. Resizing the popup to that extent would make it look ugly, hence the need for a horizontal scrollbar.
