button with drop down checkbox list

[John]

Hi, i need a control that looks like a button.  when clicked it drops down a list of items that have checkboxes next to them so the user can pick one or more.  I'm currently using the radsplitbutton.  it does most of that with the exception of the check box part.  can i add checkboxes to it?

thanks!

Hello John,

Thank you for writing.

You can add a RadCheckBox to a split button like this:

RadMenuItem item = new RadMenuItem();
item.IsChecked = true;
item.CheckOnClick = true;
this.radSplitButton1.Items.Add(item);

Also you can use the RadMenuHostItem class to add different kind of controls as menu items:

RadLabel label = new RadLabel();
label.Text = "test";

RadMenuHostItem hostedItem = new RadMenuHostItem(label);

this.radSplitButton1.Items.Add(hostedItem);

I hope this helps. Should you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.
