RadDropDownButtonElement Items with Images and no Text

[Michael]

Hello,

I want to create a rad dropdown button with items that only display an image with no text. 

For each RadMenuitem, I deleted the text, and set the displayStyle to "Image;" however, the text portion of the menu items still show up with blank text and make the menu very large.

Thanks,
Mike

Hello Mike,

The current layout of the RadMenuItem does not allow the desired behavior out-of-the-box. However, it is generally possible to achieve what you want with some tweaks in the layout of the menu popup and in the layout of the menu item. I am attaching a sample project which demonstrates what customizations should be applied.

I hope this helps.

Thank you for the sample project. It works perfect in C#.

I tried converting it to vb.net. I cannot rewrite the MyMenuItem Class correctly because I get some read only / write only errors. Can you translate that class for me into vb?

Thanks a lot,
Mike
