Icon on DropDownMenuItem of a SplitButton

[Helmut Wahrmann]

Hi,

should a DropDownMenuItem support Icons?

I guess so. at least it has a Icon property.

However it seems not to work:

                    <syncfusion:SplitButton Label="Clean Up" SmallIcon="Image/Apply_Changes_32x.png">

                        <syncfusion:DropDownMenuItem Header="Clean Up Folder" Icon="Image/Apply_Changes_32x.png"/>

                        <syncfusion:DropDownMenuItem Header="Clean Up Conversation"/>

                        <syncfusion:DropDownMenuItem Header="Clean Up Folder/SubFolder"/>

                    </syncfusion:SplitButton>

i added a Icon via SmallIcon for the Splitbutton itself and that is shown ok.

the icon on the DropDownMenuItem shows as below. Seems it is showing the word "Image" from the path instead of the icon:

thanks,

Helmut

Hi Helmut, 

 

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support. 

 

The Icon property of DropDownMenuItem is an Object type, so you need to set the Image separately for the icon. 

 

Please refer the below UG.

Hi Nikhilesh,

sorry, but when using that as part of a SplitButton in the Ribbon, i have no Icon Object to set.

I have only the Icon property.

or do i something wrong?

thanks,

Helmut

Hi Helmut, 

 

The object type which I meant in previous update is that Icon property in DropDownMenuItem has the data type of object. You can use the below code snippet to set an icon to DropDownMenuItem. 

 

Code snippet: 

<shared:DropDownMenuItem Header="Menu Item 1">    <shared:DropDownMenuItem.Icon>      <Image Source="Images/Home.png"/>    </shared:DropDownMenuItem.Icon> </shared:DropDownMenuItem>

works now.

I should have compiled the xaml before and not relying on Intellisense in the Editor telling me that this doesn't exist

thanks,

Helmut
