BarItemLinkSeparator Class

Represents a separator between item links.

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Core.v21.2.dll

Declaration

C#
VB.NET

public class BarItemLinkSeparator :
    BarItemLink

Public Class BarItemLinkSeparator
    Inherits BarItemLink

Remarks

To create a separator between bar item links, you need to create a BarItemLinkSeparator object and add it to the ItemLinks collection of a container (a bar, popup menu, sub-menu, etc).

Note: Unlike regular bar item links, the BarItemLinkSeparator class does not have a matching bar item class.

Example

This example shows how to create bar button items (BarButtonItem objects) and add a link separator between them. The separator is created using the DevExpress.Wpf.Bars.BarItemLinkSeparator class.

The following image shows the result:
