TdxFluentDesignForm.ExtendNavigationControlToCaption Property

Specifies if an associated navigation control control overlaps the form’s caption bar.

Declaration

property ExtendNavigationControlToCaption: Boolean read; write; default True;

Property Value

Type	Default
Boolean	True

Remarks

A Fluent Design application can seamlessly embed the main navigation control into the form layout. If the ExtendNavigationControlToCaption property is set to True, the TdxNavBar control assigned to the NavigationControl property stretches across the form’s height and overlaps the caption bar. An expanded Accordion or Hamburger Menu displays the form’s caption.

Value	Example
True
False

Note: The associated NavBar control can encompass the Fluent Design form’s caption only if:

• The form is skinned (that is, has a TdxSkinController component whose NativeStyle and UseSkins properties are set to False and True, respectively).

• The NavBar control is aligned to the left form border.

• The active skin’s NavBar.Properties.SupportsNavigationControlExtensionToCaption property is set to True (that is if Office2016Colorful, Office2016Dark, Office2019Black, Office2019Colorful, Office2019DarkGrey, Office2019White, TheBezier, or Basic skin is active).

• The Accordion or Hamburger Menu view is active.

• If the Hamburger Menu is active, it must be expanded in inline display mode.

The ExtendNavigationControlToCaption property’s default value is True.
