RadSplitButton does not display BackgroundImage property

[Muhammad]

I have just downloaded trial version of Telerik UI for winforms, I was trying to display an image as BackgroundImage on a RadSplitButton, but when I set the BackgroundImage property it is ignored by the control but on the other hand, the Image property works as normally, but I need to set the BackgroundImageProperty. Why this property is ignored by default, and how to fix it?

Any help will be appreciated

Hello Muhammad,

Thank you for writing.

The image cannot be seen, as it is covered by the fill elements of the action button and the arrow button. Here is how to hide their fills, hence show the background image:

radSplitButton1.DropDownButtonElement.ActionButton.ButtonFillElement.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed;
radSplitButton1.DropDownButtonElement.ArrowButton.Fill.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed;
radSplitButton1.DropDownButtonElement.ButtonSeparator.DrawBorder = false;

If this is not what you are trying to achieve, please let me know of the desired outcome and I will help you achieve it.

Regards,
