Xtra Bars About
Creating toolbars, menus, status bars and bar items right on the form - without having to activate the Designer. Multiple bar item types - you can place push, check and dropdown buttons, static text and different editors onto bars and menus. Specific bar items automatically manage the lists of available toolbars and MDI child windows. Advanced Docking - With XtraBars, you can easily create multiple docking windows and add any control to the dock window itself - just like in the VS.NET IDE. Support for the Microsoft Office 2007 Ribbon Interface Full support of MS Office 2000, Windows XP, OfficeXP and Office 2003 paint schemes. Support of the LookAndFeel technology introduced in other DevExpress .NET controls. Extendable Paint schemes - you can create your own paint scheme to override default painting settings. Customizing the appearance of individual bars and dock windows, changing the font settings of particular bar items. Alpha blending and support for background images. Various toolbar layouts - bars can be docked horizontally, vertically or can float. Arranging bar items within multiple rows is supported. Full MDI Applications Support - XtraBars enables main menus belonging to child and parent MDI forms to be merged automatically. All other bars can be merged manually as your needs dictate. Most recently used items - menus allow items which are rarely used to be hidden automatically. Saving and restoring the layout of bars to the registry, stream or XML file. At design time, it is possible to save the layout of bars you create in one application to an XML file and then transfer it to another application, for instance. Import existing MainMenus and ContextMenus. Support for customizing the layout of bars by end users. XtraBars allows you to enable "hot" customization. Hot customization is the ability of end-users to manipulate menus/bars without activating the customization dialog. Localization of the interface's elements.
