Hello,
I would like to know if there are any means to restyle the XamOutlookBar to get something similar Office is using currently? We are particularly interested in the group selector.
We are using Infragistics 14.1
Thanks and best regards,
Rainer
Hi Rainer,
I have been looking into your question and you could apply Office2013 theme on the XamOutlookBar control you just need to set its ‘Theme’ property. If you would like to re-template/restyle some of visual elements of the control when this theme is applied you could find the default style in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Infragistics\2014.1\WPF\DefaultStyles\OutlookBar
Here you could find the styles for the specific themes.
Let me know, if you need any further assistance on this matter.
Hi Yanko,
thanks for your feedback.
I certainly know how to apply the Office2013 theme and I also know where to find the default styles. But my question is if it is currently EASILY possible to get the TRUE Office2013 style with the current control or if you plan at least to support this with your next version. What Infragistics sells as Office2013 style is NOT REAL Office2013.
I want to use 3rd party components out of the box as far as possible. If I have to re-template the control I could as good write my own control.
Regards,
Sorry Yanko,
but I will not submit a product idea for something that is so obvious to have.
If you advertise your product to support Office 2013 style I really would expect that the Ribbon supports the group selection the way Office 2013 is doing it. That's not a new product idea!
Kind regards,
Thank you for your reply. I understand your strong desire for using navigation bar and this feature/control is not available, yet. This is not a development issue – just this is not implemented. This is why my suggestion is to submit a new product idea for implementing a navigation bar control explain your arguments.
Thank you for understanding.
