#Example
The following sample code demonstrates how to add and modify groups, items and links between them. All elements are added via the Add method of the corresponding collection.
Captions are assigned to the added group and two items. This is performed via the NavElement.Caption
property of the NavBarGroup and NavBarItem objects respectively. The NavElement.ImageOptions property is used to display images within links.
The following image shows the control before and after code execution.
using DevExpress.XtraNavBar;
// ...
// Create a new group
NavBarGroup helpGroup = navBarControl1.Groups.Add();
helpGroup.Caption = "Help Topics";
helpGroup.GroupStyle = NavBarGroupStyle.SmallIconsText;
// Create two items
NavBarItem indexItem = navBarControl1.Items.Add();
indexItem.Caption = "Index";
indexItem.ImageOptions.SmallImage = Image.FromFile("E:\\Images\\Icons\\index.bmp");
NavBarItem contentsItem = navBarControl1.Items.Add();
contentsItem.Caption = "Contents";
contentsItem.ImageOptions.SmallImage = Image.FromFile("E:\\Images\\Icons\\bookclosed.bmp");
// Add the items to the group
helpGroup.ItemLinks.Add(indexItem);
helpGroup.ItemLinks.Add(contentsItem);
