Hot Customization

The hot customization feature allows your end users to configure the bar layout by dragging bar items to a required position.

When hot customization is enabled, an end user can perform the following actions.

• Change a bar item’s position

  Hold down ALT and drag a bar item to a required position.

• Copy a bar item

  Hold down the ALT + CTRL key combination and drag a bar item to a required position.

• Remove an item from the toolbar

  Hold down ALT and drag the bar item outside the toolbar.

Bar items can be moved or copied to a menu that is currently closed. Closed menus are opened when you hover over them while dragging a bar item.

The following image demonstrates the hot customization feature.

If you want to disable dragging items, set the BarManager.AllowHotCustomization property to false. If you do not have a BarManager in your window, add it at the required level.
