To view longer text in combo box.
There was a TODO there that seemed to be an alternative.
I don't know a way to count a displayed text chars.

You can use DrawText() or TextOut() to get text metrics.

This is your fixation in XP SP2. As you see item is still cliped and its not pretty.
BTW call to GetSystemMetrics() adds unneeded extra overhead.

Items in drop-down list are not clipped.
