Expander in RadContextMenu

[n/a]

Hi,

I increased the font size of a RadMenuItem in a RadContextMenu. This part works fine. However, if the RadMenuItem has a nested menu, then it has an expander icon which looks too small next to the large font. Is it possible to increase the expander icon?

Hi,

To increase the size of the expander icon, you will need to modify the control template of the RadMenuItem and change the size of its ExpanderIcon element. You can replace the default Path element which is used with a RadGlyph and bind its FontSize to the FontSize of the parent menu item:

                                    <Grid x:Name="ExpandIcon" Margin="0 0 2 0" Height="19" Width="16" Visibility="Collapsed">
                                        <telerik:RadGlyph FontSize="{TemplateBinding FontSize}" Glyph="{StaticResource GlyphArrow60Right}" />
                                    </Grid>

Please note that to use the GlyphArrow60Right resource, you need to merge the FontResources.xaml dictionary as explained here.

Do let me know if you find this helpful. If you require any further assistance with the exact implementation, please specify the theme(s) you're using and your theming approach (StyleManager or implicit styles) and I will gladly provide more guidance on the matter.
