Namespace: DevExpress.XtraBars

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraBars.v19.2.dll

Declaration

C#

[DefaultValue(-1)]
public virtual int BarItemHorzIndent { get; set; }

VB.NET

<DefaultValue(-1)>
Public Overridable Property BarItemHorzIndent As Integer

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
Int32	-1	An integer value specifying the number of pixels between the content and the borders of bar links, -1 to calculate the indent automatically.

Remarks

Use the BarItemVertIndent property to control the horizontal distance between bar item links in your application. BarItemHorzIndent specifies the horizontal indent between links for the bars, for which the Bar.BarItemHorzIndent property is set to -1.

If you set the Bar.BarItemHorzIndent property for an individual bar to a value greater than -1, the links within the bar will be arranged using this indent while ignoring the BarAndDockingController’s setting.

If the BarItemHorzIndent property is set to -1, the default indent value will be used according to the currently applied paint scheme (BarAndDockingController.PaintStyleName). To get the actual indent, use the BarManagerProperties.GetLinkHorzIndent function.

The BarItemHorzIndent property is not in effect if bars are docked to the right or left edges of a container (form).

The image below displays bars when the BarItemHorzIndent property value is -1.

The next image displays the same bar when the BarItemHorzIndent property is set to 10.
