Showing a DropDownBarItems PopupControlContainer from code?

[Administrator]

Hi,

I am using a DropDownBarItem in my applications toolbar (there is a Bar that is added to the MainFrameBarManagers Bars collection that contains the DropDownBarItem).

What i want to know it there is a way to PopUp the DropDownBarItems PopupControlContainer from code without having to specity its location.

The only way i manage to force the popup from code is like this.

m_dropDownBarItem.PopupControlContainer.ShowPopUp(location);

But i would like to force the popup at its default location... At the same location it is shown if i click the "small black arrow" on the BarItem in the toolbar.

Any help would be apreciated

thanx!

Hi Peter,

I am afraid it is not possible to popup the DropDownBarItems PopupControlContainer from code without specifying the location. We appreciate your interest in Syncfusion products.

OK,

I´ll have to calculate the position myself then i guess.

I managed to find out how to allign the PopUpControlContainer to the DropDownBarItem (i think) through the myDropDownBarItem.PopupControlContainer.PopupHost.CurrentRAlign
property.

But now the question is how i am supposed to get the current location and size of the DropDownBarItem?
