Menu / Offsetting the Groups


  • Normally, a group of child items expands adjacent to its parent item. You may want to change this setting for a particular group of items, so that the child items expand somewhere else on the page.

    To allow this, the RadMenuItem.GroupSettings class exposes the OffsetX and OffsetY properties. They indicate the horizontal and vertical offset of child menu items. The offset is measured in pixels. The value is relative to the parent item: the default value in both axes is 0 (no offset).
