Looking for CW_BSELECTOR like widget [message #1805]

CW_BSELECTOR is a compound widget that appears as a pull-down menu whose
lable shows the widget's current value. When the button is pressed, the
menu appears and the newly selected value becomes the new title of the
pull-down menu.
I'd like the same basic behavior, except that when the menu appears I'd
like it to have a scroll bar. My pull-down menus could potentially
have several (>30) values; when there are this many the menu is so long
that the items at the bottom of the menu go off of the screen.
Or alternatively I guess I could have a button that pops up a list widget,
that in turn changes the value of the button to the value selected in the
list, but this is awkward. I could use just a list, but a single button
makes the overall appearance of the application less cluttered. Any
suggestions?
