custom controls on childFrameBarManager

[Steve Bryant]

Is there a way of showing custom controls on a Bar using the childFrameBarManager without having to go to a dropdown on the menu bar. I want the custom control sitting on the bar like it would in the detached command bar in the mainFrameBarManager.

thanks for any help.

Hi Steve, Unfortunately, it is not possible to use a Detached CommandBar with a ChildFrameBarManager. However, you could add a Detached CommandBar to the parent form and have the control use the ActiveMDIChild property of the form to direct the input to the appropriate child. However, you''ll have to control the visibility of the CommandBar yourself. I have attached a sample that demonstrates this. Regards, Gregory Austin Syncfusion, Inc.
