Gets or sets whether the drop-down BarButtonItem should display an arrow in menus.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraBars

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraBars.v24.2.dll

Declaration

C#

[DefaultValue(true)]
[DXCategory("Appearance")]
public bool AllowDrawArrowInMenu { get; set; }

VB.NET

<DefaultValue(True)>
<DXCategory("Appearance")>
Public Property AllowDrawArrowInMenu As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
Boolean	true	true if the drop-down BarButtonItem should display an arrow in menus; otherwise, false.

Remarks

If the BarButtonItem displayed within a menu, itself contains a drop-down menu (see the BarButtonItem.DropDownControl property), you can manually specify whether the drop-down arrow for this BarButtonItem should be displayed. The figure below illustrates the drop-down button with and without an arrow.

The AllowDrawArrowInMenu property has effect only for BarButtonItems, whose BarButtonItem.ActAsDropDown property equals true. Otherwise, the drop-down arrow is always visible (see the image below).

If the drop-down BarButtonItem is not displayed within a menu, you can specify the visibility of its arrow via the BarButtonItem.AllowDrawArrow property.
