Isn't there any way to add an extra button to the caption form like the help button without making the form border style (None)

Hello, Ahmed,

In order to add an extra button in the title bar I would recommend you to have a look at the following forum thread which demonstrates a sample code snippet how to achieve it: https://www.telerik.com/forums/how-to-properly-add-a-radbuttonelement-in-a-radform-titlebar

I hope this information helps. If you have any additional questions, please let me know.

Hello, Ahmed,

Please excuse me for the misunderstanding but it was not clear enough according to the provided information. RadTextBox/RadTextBoxControl are input controls. They can't be added to the non-client area of the form which is the title bar. The focus won't be passed to the text box. The possible solution that I can suggest is to use a ShapedForm with a RadTitleBar. Then, add a RadTextBox/RadTextBoxControl to the RadTitleBar at design time.

I hope this information helps. If you have any additional questions, please let me know.
