DropDownButton Appearance
This article describes the declarative settings of the DropDownButton component, which affect the styling and appearance of the primary button.
The DropDownButton provides the same appearance parameters as the regular Button component:
Setting Parameter Values
The examples in this article use reflection to show all possible values of the DropDownButton parameters. In a real-world scenario, you can use two options to set the desired parameter values:
- Use the static class members in the
ThemeConstants.DropDownButtonnamespace. This is the easier and recommended approach. - Set the actual string values directly.
The following two configurations will produce the same result.
Two ways to set DropDownButton appearance parameters

FillMode Class Member | String Value |
|---|---|
Solid (default) | "solid" |
Flat | "flat" |
Outline | "outline" |
Link | "link" |

ThemeBuilder
To take full control over the appearance of the Telerik UI for Blazor components, you can create your own styles by using ThemeBuilder.
ThemeBuilder is a web application that enables you to create new themes and customize existing ones. Every change that you make is visualized almost instantly. Once you are done styling the UI components, you can export a ZIP file with the styles for your theme and use them in your Blazor app.
