I have a form where I'd like to use an UltraRadialMenu. I have two questions for which I can't find the answer:
1.) How do I make the control anchored to the form rather than always in the same location on my screen?
2.) How can I make the control transparent? I've tried setting the "Alpha" on number of the appearance properties, but none have worked.
Hello Roryap,
Thank you for contacting Infragistics.

There is currently no way to do this by setting a property once at design-time. However, you can easily do this in code by calling UltraRadialMenu.Show(form, point) in the Form.Load, Form.Move, and Form.Resize event handlers. I would also recommend posting this as a new product idea at http://ideas.infragistics.com so our Product Management team knows about it and other users can vote on it.

This is a known issue with the control and will be resolved with the next Service Release which is scheduled to be released on April 18.
Thanks Dave. One other question: is it possible for the user to be able to drag the menu icon? to move it around in case it's blocking content they'd like to see?
Hello Rory,
Thank you for your response.
It is currently not possible to move the UltraRadialMenu by dragging the center tool. I would recommend posting this on http://ideas.infragistics.com.
Make sure you pass the owning form into the Show() method of the radial menu as the first parameter.
Thanks. Another question: how do I make the control appear over my form that it's on? Currently, it's in back of the form.
