Represents a toolbar-like control with flat appearance and support for custom drop-down controls. It provides all the functionality of the standard Windows.Forms.ToolBar as well as moving and changing location. This toolbar also provides some extended features as dropping custom PopupWindow objects instead of the standard ContextMenus.

'Declaration <ToolboxItemAttribute(ToolboxItemType=, ToolboxItemTypeName="")> <DesignerAttribute(DesignerBaseTypeName="System.ComponentModel.Design.IDesigner", DesignerTypeName="Xceed.Chart.UIControls.ToolBarDesigner, Xceed.Chart.UIControls.v4.4, Version=4.4.100.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=ba83ff368b7563c6")> Public Class ToolBar Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Control
'Usage Dim instance As ToolBar
[ToolboxItem(ToolboxItemType=, ToolboxItemTypeName="")] [Designer(DesignerBaseTypeName="System.ComponentModel.Design.IDesigner", DesignerTypeName="Xceed.Chart.UIControls.ToolBarDesigner, Xceed.Chart.UIControls.v4.4, Version=4.4.100.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=ba83ff368b7563c6")] public class ToolBar : System.Windows.Forms.Control
Remarks
You may also add standard controls - they have to be assigned to a ToolBarButton object with its 'Style' property set to ToolBarButtonStyle.Control - to the toolbar and they will be repositioned and treated as if they are toolbar buttons.
Example
The following example demostrates how to add a combobox to an existing
ToolBar object:
This is useful because if you add the control directly to the toolbar
you will be responsible for its proper location and size, while assigning it
to a toolbar button guaranties you that.
'create a toolbar Dim toolbar As ToolBar = New ToolBar() 'create a toolbar button Dim tbb As ToolBarButton = New ToolBarButton() tbb.Style = ToolBarButtonStyle.Control 'create a standard combobox Dim combo As ComboBox = New ComboBox() 'assign it to the toolbar button tbb.Control = combo toolbar.Buttons.Add(tbb)
//create a toolbar ToolBar toolbar = new ToolBar(); //create a toolbar button ToolBarButton tbb = new ToolBarButton(); tbb.Style = ToolBarButtonStyle.Control; //create a standard combobox ComboBox combo = new ComboBox(); //assign it to the toolbar button tbb.Control = combo; toolbar.Buttons.Add(tbb);
