Hi,
Is there any reason those controls do not use "..." as in the
attached?

Thank you.

Hi,

what exactly are you asking, the browse button has the ellipsis as the label in your screenshot?

As documented and can be seen in the widgets sample, the ellipsis is used only when the controls are created with (non-default)  wxFLP_SMALL style and text "Browse" otherwise?

Regards,
PB

Yes, it does.
But by default it has "Browse" text in the button.

So I need to use a different style...

Thx.
