Remarks

The expand button is displayed within the NavBarControl’s caption if the OptionsNavPane.ShowExpandButton property is set to true. The ExpandButtonMode property specifies the direction of the expand button’s arrow (normal or inverted). The arrow visually indicates the direction in which the control is expanded/collapsed. The arrow’s normal display mode is appropriate if the control is docked to a form’s or panel’s left edge. If the control is docked to the form’s right edge, use the arrow’s inverted display mode.
