The fix works for me.

I added a hack to work around this problem. It is not the proper solution, but I cannot figure out, where the current code goes wrong. In the cairo backend we do the same things as the art backend, still it works there and fails here.

For me, the box does update with the new information, it is just that I have to blindly navigate the menu. I don't know if this helps, but cairo-glitz (which still has manifold problems for me) does not black out the menu, and does update the box.

The behaviour I get from combo boxes is a bit different. They are displayed correctly, but don't seem to interact with the user. In reality they interact correctly but wont display the changed data.

This could be caused by the cairo backend not handling non retained windows correctly. This would also explain, why dragging a control in Gorm shows the wrong image.
Most likely it is just some sort of flushing that is missing here, but where????

With the Cairo backend, the dropdown menu of combo boxes is blacked out. Art backend is OK. Regular dropdown menus are OK. I added a combo box to TestApp3 as an example. (This was generated with the new Gorm format and new ProjectCenter format.)
