ASPxMenuBase.ShowSubMenuShadow Property

Gets or sets a value that specifies whether a submenu casts a shadow.

Namespace: DevExpress.Web

Assembly: DevExpress.Web.v24.2.dll

Declaration

C#

[DefaultValue(true)]
public virtual bool ShowSubMenuShadow { get; set; }

VB.NET

<DefaultValue(True)>
Public Overridable Property ShowSubMenuShadow As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
Boolean	true	true if a submenu casts a shadow; otherwise false.

Remarks

Use the ShowSubMenuShadow property to control whether submenus of a menu control are displayed with shadows.

Note

Since a submenu shadow is displayed using the CSS3 standard, browsers that don’t support this standard (Interned Explorer 8 and earlier) do not display the shadow.

Example

This part of the Templates demo illustrates how to use template technology within the ASPxMenu control.

A specific MenuItem.SubMenuTemplate property is used to define the template for the first root menu item’s submenu. The content of a SubMenuTemplate type is represented by the ASPxSiteMapControl, which displays a hierarchical structure of links (site map nodes) that reference different web pages within the site.

The appearance of the second root menu item’s sub-item is defined via the MenuItem.Template property of each sub-item.
