• Nov 13, 2018

The following sample code creates a new category and adds it to the BarManager’s BarManager.Categories collection. Then, the category created is assigned to the first item in the BarManager’s BarManager.Items collection.

C#

if (barManager1.Categories.IndexOf("NewCategory") == -1) {
   barManager1.Items[0].Category = barManager1.Categories.Add("NewCategory");
}

VB.NET

If BarManager1.Categories.IndexOf("NewCategory") = -1 Then
   BarManager1.Items(0).Category = BarManager1.Categories.Add("NewCategory")
