Change title "Folders"

[M STOLYAR]

Hello.
How can be changed title "Folders" when RadOutlookBar is minimized?

[Petar Mladenov]

Hello M Stolyar,

You can use the MinimizedButtonContent property of the RadOutlookBar to change this String. Let us know if you need more info.

Hello Petar.
Ok, how to display in MinimizedButtonContent area the header of the selected OutlookBarItem?
And side note: there is no mention about MinimizedButtonContent in demos (having 2011 SP1) or documentation of the control (http://www.telerik.com/help/silverlight/radoutlookbar-visual-structure.html).

Hi M Stolyar,

You can do like so:

<telerik:RadOutlookBar x:Name="RadOutlookBar1"
                              Width="200"
                              MinimizedButtonContent="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}, Path=SelectedItem.Header}"
                              Height="700"
                               />

We appreciate your feedback for the missing documentation and we created a work item for this. Thank you for your cooperation.

Hello Laxmikant,

I managed to achieve your requirement by changing the RadDropDownButton with a RadToggleButton. Also, I bound the RadToggleButton.IsChecked property to the RadOutlookBar.IsMinimized property. By doing so the control will be maximized whenever you press the toggle button.

I implemented this approach in the attached project. Please take a look at it and let me know if you need any further assistance.

Hi Petar,

When minimized, if i click on the item of outlookbar, a white band containing the content of the item is displayed. Is there an option to retrict the display of the white band?

Please reply for this.

Thanks

Hi Manikandan,

I am not sure that I understand what you say. Can you please clarify what you have in mid. Are you talking about the RadOutlookBar in minimized state or you talk about the RadOutlookBarItems? It will be great if you can provide me with picture of the "band" that you talk about? What are the steps to reproduce this issue in the project attached in my previous reply?

Hi Pavel,

Thanks for the reply. I am concerned about the RadOutlookBar in minimized state. At this stage, When i click on an item of OutlookBar, a white band displaying the content of the item is shown. Is there any option to restrict that. PFA, the screenshot of my issue.

Thanks

Hi Pavel,

It is not working. It just restricts the access to other items of the outlookbar. But even now the white band with content comes up.

Anyother solution?

Thanks
