Is it possible to add a rad menu to the title of a panel bar?

Hi Brian,

Please see our online example PanelBar And Menu.

Hope this will help you achieve your task.

This sample puts the rad menu in the item template.  Is there a Title Template?  I would like to place a drop-down menu inside the title bar.  I know I can do it with a RAD Dock but I am running into limitations with the Rad Dock control.

Hello Brian,

Please refer to our Templates example that shows the needed approach.

Sincerely yours,

I must be missing something.  I have added in the control using the templates at runtime.  I had that part working but the menu is below the line. 

I cannot seem to post an example here but is my C# code (the ASPX only has a bare bones panel control:

class

SummaryTemplate : ITemplate

{

public void InstantiateIn(Control container)

{

RadMenu menu = new RadMenu();

menu.Skin =

"Telerik";

menu.OnClientItemClicked =

"onClicked";

menu.CollapseAnimation.Type =

AnimationType.None;

RadMenuItem subMenu = new RadMenuItem("(change <img src='Images/arrow.gif' originalAttribute="src" originalPath="Images/arrow.gif" border='0' alt=''/>)");

subMenu.Items.Add(

new RadMenuItem("Books"));

subMenu.Items.Add(

new RadMenuItem("Cameras"));

subMenu.Items.Add(

new RadMenuItem("Apparel"));

menu.DataBinding +=

new EventHandler(menu_DataBinding);

menu.Items.Add(subMenu);

container.Controls.Add(menu);

}

void menu_DataBinding(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

}

}

public partial class PanelTest : System.Web.UI.Page

Hello Brian,

Unfortunately, the provided information does not help us much in reproducing the error. I'm afraid we could not be of much help unless we reproduce the issue on our side. It will be best if you can open a support ticket and send us a simple running project (incl. your custom skin, CSS, images, DB backup if needed and so on) demonstrating the problem (and step-by-step instructions on doing so). In that way we can reproduce and pinpoint the problems you're facing on our side, understand the logic of your application and provide a solution.

Kind regards,
Paul

ok, I will add in a new support ticket and reference this thread.

Hi Brian,

Actually, your code works as expected. Still, you have forgotten to include the styles.css file that has some additional CSS classes to position the menu.
