Hi i have a few questions on the ultraexplorerbar....
1) I am able to create a group and then items in that group.... but how do i create items of items within a group...
eg: group -> item1 -> item1a /*this is what im wanting*/
-> item1b
group -> item2
group -> item3
2) what properties do i have to set to give the explorerebar the same look and feel as outlook 2007 or 2010? ive tried cant get this right.
TIA
There are a number of ways you could achieve this, but basically I think you need two UltraTree controls. You can only put one control inside the group, but you could use a Panel that contains two trees or maybe a UserControl if it makes it easier to encapsulate the code.
Just a follow up question here... in outlook 2010 the explorerbar has a favourite menu... how do i get this functionality from this control? i think it would come from the controlcontainer(ultratree). Any ideas on how i can impliment the favourites node where i can drag and drop items to, just like in outlook2010?
Thanks so much mike.... This is what i was wanting.... you the best!
Hi,
There's really not much to it. I beleive one of the samples included with NetAdvantage does this, so if you are looking for an example, check out the samples (assuming you chose to install them).
...\NetAdvantage\DEV\WinForms\2011.2\Samples\WinExplorerBar\CS\OUTLOOKEXPLORER
The basic gist is you add a group to your ExplorerBar, and then set
ultraExplorerBarGroup1.Settings.Style = Infragistics.Win.UltraWinExplorerBar.GroupStyle.ControlContainer;
Then you place an UltraWinTree or whatever control you want inside the group in the designer.
Sorry... is there any links that can show me how to do this? Or can you provide insight on how to do this...
