BarItemLink.MostRecentlyUsed Property

Determines whether the current item link is initially visible when inside a submenu.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraBars

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraBars.v24.2.dll

Declaration

C#

[DXCategory("Behavior")]
[XtraSerializableProperty]
public virtual bool MostRecentlyUsed { get; set; }

VB.NET

<XtraSerializableProperty>
<DXCategory("Behavior")>
Public Overridable Property MostRecentlyUsed As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true if the current item link is initially visible; otherwise, false.

Remarks

When an end-user opens a submenu, item links with disabled MostRecentlyUsed properties are not visible. To view all submenu items, a user needs to do one of the following:

• click the expand menu button;

  

• hover over a menu for at least two seconds (see the BarManager.ShowFullMenusAfterDelay property).

If a user frequently clicks an initially hidden link, it can eventually become visible from the moment a submenu opens. The number of clicks required for this is determined by the BarManagerProperties.MostRecentItemsPercent property value.
