Changing ActiveItems count

[Miłosz Cechnicki]

Hi,

there is a property ActiveItemsMaxCount, that allows change the max active items.
But I can't set the initial value of ActiveItems, after the control is loaded.

I'd like to show the outlook bar with all items collapsed, but give user the ability to expand all of them.

Is it possible?

Best regards

Hi Miłosz,

Unfortunately at the moment the only way to achieve your scenario is by setting the ActiveItemsMaxCount property but as you correctly noted - it doesn't allow you to move the items to the active area later. So you'll need to change its value at some time but this will move a number of items that equals the value of the property  into the active area.

We are aware that this is a limitation of the control and we have logged it in our PITS where you can vote for it thus increasing its priority. We will do our best to implement a feature that will enable scenarios like yours as soon as possible.

Please accept our apology for this inconvinience.
