BarStaticItem Class

Represents a bar item that allows you to display static text.

Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Bars

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Core.v19.2.dll

Declaration

C#

public class BarStaticItem :
    BarItem

VB.NET

Public Class BarStaticItem
    Inherits BarItem

Remarks

Use a BarStaticItem object to display static text in bars and menus.

You can customize the auto-size mode for BarStaticItem items via the BarStaticItem.AutoSizeMode property. Setting this property to Fill stretches the item’s links, so that they occupy the largest possible area of a bar.
