Hi all,
how do I get a DropDownButton to look like an UltraButton? See the left part of the screenshot: the third button is a DropDownButton, only it's text and down arrow is visible, no BackColor or Border. On the right side, the same buttons with the DropDownButton showing it's HotTrackAppearance (mouse is over it). If I could show this all the time, it would be acceptable (the border is missing, but ok).
Setting UseOsThemes to false makes the button to paint it's BackColor, but then the shape is wrong, so no option for us.
Version 11.2 on WinXP and Win7 / no Style loaded
Thanks for any ideas,
Anca
I have the exact same Question :)
Infragistics 16.1 - Still no option for the UltraDropDownButton to visually act like a UltraButton :(
The DropDownButton only shows its shape, if the mouse is over the control. If not, you cannot see the button.
Staff says: "turn off UseOsThemes" - but as the OP that's not really a solution because the button then is a more or less plain rectangle - doesn't fit with the UltraButtons (with OsThemes)
Hello Anca,
I wanted to know if you were able to solve your issue based on these suggestions or you still need help. Please let me know.
Boris Toromanov"]You could set the 'ThemedElementAlpha' property on the 'Appearance' object of the control to 'Transparent'.
You can achieve the same thing by setting UseOsThemes on the control to false.
You could set the 'ThemedElementAlpha' property on the 'Appearance' object of the control to 'Transparent'. Please then try the different style options of the 'ButtonStyle' property of the 'UltraDropDownButton' control.
Feel free to let me know if I misunderstood you or if you have any other questions.
