Visual Modes

GroupBar supports three VisualModes like Normal mode, Stack mode and MultiExpansion mode. In the Normal mode, more than one bar cannot expand and the groupbars expand to show it's children, in place.

In the Stack mode, the bars are displayed in a navigation pane at the bottom and when the user selects one, their children are shown in the view on top. This mode is very similar to the Microsoft OutlookBar behavior.

In MultiExpansion mode, more than one bar can be expanded and the bars are rendered more like a tree with the expand/collapse buttons.
