Not sure. I might be able to help if I could see your patch. What version of 
kdevelop are you dealing with? kdevelop1.3, 1.4 or 2.0?

What about using a QPopupMenu instead of a QListBox? Does that have the style 
and functionality you want? But look at dbgtoolbar.cpp for code that uses a 
QFrame without the decorations. (again in kdevelop1.4 not the kdevelop2.0. 
I've yet to fix that properly)

Sounds good. I'd be very interesting in seeing what you have, especially if 
you are working on kdevelop1.4.
