WatermarkComboBox background and selection issues after 4.4.0 #1729

Thanks for this library ♥

4.4.0 introduced the possibility to set the background brush of the WatermarkComboBox. But this seems to have brought some issues;

  1. There is no default background, and the combo box ends up transparent if not setting a background.
  2. When not setting any background, the ComboBox is hard to activate with the mouse:
    • Mouse is often not captured, and you have to move the mouse out and the back in slowly to get it to capture.
    • When mouse is not captured, clicking inside the box has no effect.
  3. When setting a background to workaround 2. above, the default hover-effect is removed, making the control feel disabled. (The hover effect works as expected when not setting the background, when you get the mouse to be captured)

Any tips on how to resolve or work around this would be greatly appreciated!

My preferred functionality would be to have a default background matching the default WPF style, and when setting a background the hover-effect to still be there.

Hi

The reported issues have been fixed and will be made available in v4.6 service release.

Thank you
