Description
There are several additional features provided by the combo box that are not that easy to discover and should be documented.
- Add a page to the Wiki for ComboBox
- Add a link to it in the sidebar under Controls
- Document the two possible styles for ComboBox (
MaterialDesignComboBox- this is the default, andMaterialDesignFloatingHintComboBox) - Document that in addition to the default brushes on ComboBox there are a couple attached properties for changing colors. These are
TextFieldAssist.UnderlineBrushfor changing the color of the underline when the ComboBox is editable and the user is editing.HintAssist.Foregroundfor changing the color of the hint (when it is used). - Document the
ComboBoxAssist.ClassicModeattached property. When this is set totrueit will cause the popup with the items to display strictly outside of the ComboBox rather than around it. This is more closely aligned with the default WPF ComboBox.

Confirm the ComboBox page covers both styles, the TextFieldAssist.UnderlineBrush and HintAssist.Foreground properties, and ComboBoxAssist.ClassicMode; done means all listed items are documented and linked.
