  Hello,

  Is it possible to create a custom cell type based off of combo box cell type (possible inherit it)? If its possible to iniherit combo box cell type, how can i go about customizing the drop down of a combo box?

  I am loading a combo box with an ajax call and would like to show a loading indicator in the drop down until the ajax is returned.
  
  I plan to do this as follows

  
  cell.cellType(new customComboBoxCellType());
  $ajax({
  	//
  	success(data) {
  				cell.cellType(new GC.Spread.Sheets.CellTypes.ComboBox());
  				cell.CellType.items(data);
  
  

  What I am having difficulty understanding is how to create the customComboBoxCellType and how to set the drop-down html specifically.

  Thanks in advance!
