I have made the code for the combo box too. 
I posted at that time also a screenshot with it but Benoit was sleeping :)
Looks the same as VB has. 
He comment in the Hall of Fame I try to make it VB and he will resist. :)

Yes the space on the side used is bad.
I did put it all in HBox/VBox and with SideBar and that goes well.
This was after a sneak preview of the alternative IDE.
