The Items collection of the RadToolBar object exposes the the root items of a RadToolBar. The child buttons of a dropdown or split button can be accessed using the Buttons collections of these items.
This example demonstrates the server-side creation of the three types of toolbar items described above.
You can create a root RadToolBarButton by using the code below:
C#:
RadToolBarButton rootButton = new RadToolBarButton("Bold"); RadToolBar1.Items.Add(rootButton);
VB:
Dim rootButton as RadToolBarButton = new RadToolBarButton("Bold") RadToolBar1.Items.Add(rootButton)
You can create a RadToolBarDropDown and add a checkable RadToolBarButtonto it by using the code below:
RadToolBarDropDown dropDown = new RadToolBarDropDown("Align"); RadToolBar1.Items.Add(dropDown); RadToolBarButton leftButton = new RadToolBarButton("Left", true, "AlignGroup"); dropDown.Buttons.Add(leftButton);
Dim dropDown as RadToolBarDropDown = new RadToolBarDropDown("Align") RadToolBar1.Items.Add(dropDown) Dim leftButton as RadToolBarButton = new RadToolBarButton("Left", true, "AlignGroup") dropDown.Buttons.Add(leftButton)
