The columns in our LookupComboBoxes are slightly smaller than we expected, when using DropDownAutoSize := true. Below are 3 screenshots, the fist of a 10 char length edit, the 2nd a 14 char and the 3rd a 16 char. The lookup autosizes, but is around one character short every time.
We have closed this ticket because another page addresses its subject:
cxLookupComboBox - Lookup columns displayed in the editor's dropdown window are too narrow to display certain characters if the editor's Properties.DropDownAutoSize property is set to TrueTcxLookupComboBox - Columns displayed in the drop-down window are too narrow to display their content if the Properties.DropDownAutoSize property is set to True

Here is a screenshot with the combo showing the popup. The strings that does not have (pixel-)wide character show ok, but the strings with wide characters (here W) does not show fully. In this example 11 of 20 characters are shown in the popup.
Thank you for the clarification. We will examine this behavior and get back to you once we have any results or need additional information. Thank you for your patience.
