combobox drop down menu is displaced (cef 3.1750.1619)

[theGoat]

Just upgraded to cef 3.1750.1619 and I'm seeing an issue with combobox elements (html select tag: http://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/tag_select.asp ).

When you click the combobox element it displays a drop down menu of choices. But the menu always seems to appear at the offset position of where the CEF window was first positioned. If you move the CEF window and click the combobox element, the menu no longer lines up with the html element.

This is reproducible with cef 3.1750.1619 cefclient, in visual studio 2012 with, CEF_ENABLE_SANDBOX=0.

See the attached picture for an example of the problem.

This is likely a bug related to Aura. Please add an issue to the issue tracker.

After investigating that problem, it looks like we somehow have to call RenderWidgetHostImpl::SendScreenRects() after moving window. Renderer send message ViewHostMsg_ShowWidget for showing HTMLSelect element, with wrong coordinates because it doesn't know that window has been moved.
I've temporarily solved this problem by creating method in CefBrowserHost in which I call SendScreenRects(), and then call this method from WM_MOVE handler in main window.

I am re-posting this question

here because the CefGlue forum is a bit quiet at the moment. I am hoping somebody can give me some help with this. Has anybody managed to fix the drop down menu issue in CefGlue? Any help would be appreciated.

Many thanks
