Is there a way to set the text elide mode for the text shown in a QComboBox (not the popup list)?

It is possible to set it for items in the popup list

Qt Code: 
  1. myCmb->view()->setTextElideMode()
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

but I did not find any way to set it for the text shown in the QComboBox.

Thanks in advance for your help
