RadTabControl in combobox

[bborie0107]

Hi

I read the post :
http://blogs.telerik.com/valerihristov/posts/09-08-27/treeview_in_combobox_take_3_silverlight_3_wpf_and_radcontrols.aspx

How can i put RadTabControl in combobox?
And I'd like to make multiple RadTabItems in tabcontrol, Each RadTabitem contains  identical user control like treeview in one tab  and gridview in another tab.   
I just modified template codes of blog's  source code  but i failed.  Combobox's seleted item is not changed as i expected.

Regards,
Park

Hello Park,

For such complex scenarios like yours I would strongly recommend using RadDropDown button instead of RadComboBox:

Thanks Valeri for quick reply 

Would you please tell me more how i can solve my situation using RadDropDownButton?  I assume i can assign RadTabControl as
DropDownButton's DropDownContent and update dropdown's content whenever selection events of controls in radtabitem occur
I don't get how to assign itemsource to each control.

Park

Hi Samuel,

We are sorry for the late response.

Attached you can find an example where the drop down button, tab control, tree view and grid view are involved. The button's content is driven according to the selection in the last active element - the tree or the grid. Please preview it and let us know if we missed something.
