Namespace: DevExpress.XtraBars.Docking

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraBars.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Navigation

Declaration

[DefaultValue(null)]
[DXCategory("Appearance")]
public IDXMenuManager MenuManager { get; set; }

Property Value

Type Default Description
DevExpress.Utils.Menu.IDXMenuManager null

An object that controls the look and feel of the DockManager‘s popup menus.

Remarks

The MenuManager property allows you to specify an IDXMenuManager object to control the look and feel of the DockManager‘s popup menus. If the property is set to null, the DockManager‘s popup menus will be painted by the DockManager itself. Otherwise, the IDXMenuManager object will be responsible for painting the menus.

Currently, the IDXMenuManager interface is implemented by the BarManager component.

If the MenuManager property is set to an instance of the BarManager component, you can provide different look and feel styles (Flat, Styles3D, OfficeXP, Office2003 etc) for popup menus. In this case, look and feel settings are controlled by the BarAndDockingController.LookAndFeel property of the BarAndDockingController used by the BarManager (see the BarManager.Controller property).
