'Fuzzy" Combo box

What do I need to do to solve the fact that the selected item in the
combobox control is not "crisp", like the similar item in the drop down
list? See attached image. I'm using the Dec CTP.

Thanks,

CS

Re: 'Fuzzy" Combo box

I can only hazard a guess as I'm not in a position to check right now but
could it be because it is contained in a toolbar? If you move it outside the
toolbar does it exhibit the same behaviour? I'm thinking that maybe the
toolbar is squashing the combobox somewhat causing the font resize to an
irregular size. You could also try increse the height of the toolbar to see
if that solves it.

It is in a toolbar, but I made the toolbar height much bigger than it needs
to be, but doesn't help the original problem.
