Horizontal overflow area

[Greg]

Is there a way to make the toolbar overflow area horizontal?

Currently it seems to display elements vertically and that not what I desire considering the fact that I'm customizing the layout of the toolbar controls.

Preferably the overflow orientation should match that of the toolbar.

Hello Greg,

The "Overflow area" is placed in a popup inside the template of ToolBar control. You can easily change its orientation using Loaded event of the ToolBar:

private void toolBar_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    var popup = this.toolBar.ChildrenOfType<Popup>().FirstOrDefault(x => x.Name == "PART_Overflow");
    var overFlow = popup.Child.ChildrenOfType<RadToolBarOverflowPanel>().FirstOrDefault();
    if (overFlow != null)
    {
        overFlow.Orientation = System.Windows.Controls.Orientation.Horizontal;
    }
}

I hope this information helps.
