What's the max number of items in a uiCombo?

Hi
I have a uiCombo populated with a list of 450 waveform names. However, it seems that setValue only works up to 295; for setValue(296, true) and above the uiCombo displays “no selection”. Is this a known limitation and is there a way to increase it?

That sound impossible, but i’ll test that and let you know asap.

Thanks Atom, but don’t waste too much time on it.
After further testing, I found out that the limit is the value “Maximum value the modulator can have should be set from the UI component” in the Modulator tab. It is not editable but grows automatically while you populate the list. I think it got stuck to 296 somehow while I copy/pasted the combo content.
Now I’m trying again on an empty panel with onli a uiCombo and it is working correctly up to 450, so maybe this was not a real problem.
The correct way would be to populate the list from the resources but that’s above my LUA skills.

Yeah i checked that, there is no real limit, i guess maybe 65536 but that souldnt be the limit (unless JUCE has some internal limits for that) anything up to that number u should be fine

A long time ago I had troubles with combos that had more than 4000 (can’t remember the exact number) characters in the combo content.
