I'm trying to show a user control as a popup for a tool in the main menu bar, with a resize handle/grip, but:
What's my best option here?
Hello Sören.
Unfortunately, the only real possibility at this time is the technique you mentioned regarding using the UltraPopupControlContainer and a tool on the UltraToolbarsManager.
I've attempted a number of other techniques including making my own ResizerControl that adds a DropDownResizeHandleUIElement to the UIElements collection, and adding this new control to the control being displayed by the PopupControlContainerTool. This didn't work due to the DropDownResizeHandleUIElement requiring that it's Control being directly parented by the DropDownForm. With the PopupControlContainerTool, there are a couple extra levels of controls between the DropDownForm and the control being displayed.
I recommend submitting a new product idea on our website to add the additional functionality of allowing a PopupControlContainerTool to be resized by the user. Please use this link: http://ideas.infragistics.com
Let me know if you have any further questions regarding this matter.
Sincerely,
Chris
Thanks for the answer. I've created an idea at http://ideas.infragistics.com/forums/192357-general/suggestions/9915111-add-a-resize-handle-option-like-dropdownresizehan.
