    Hi all

    Does telerik have a vertical separator for wpf that separates sections of the 'form'?
    eg something similar to the winforms version here: http://www.telerik.com/help/winforms/panels-and-labels-separator.html

    I want to use both vertical and horizontal separators strictly for visual appearance, but there doesn't seem to be anything available. 

    cheers

    Never mind, I found out how:

    <Separator>
      <Separator.LayoutTransform>
        <RotateTransform Angle="90" />
      </Separator.LayoutTransform>
    </Separator>

    Hi Alex,

     


    We do not provide an exact alternative of the separator implemented in WinForms. However you can easily implement it as demonstrated in the following blog post "How To Create a Vertical Separator with WPF".

    Hi Vanya

    >> easily

    hmmm, i don't quite get styles/templates etc and haven't even used Expression Blend.

    I had a look at the SpoiledTechie's instructions, but they look like they will set _all_ separators to be vertical (though that interpretation might be due to me not translating properly).  I want both horizontal and vertical separators in different places.

    Plus, my code works (so far)      ;-)

    cheers

    Hello Alex,

     

    In my opinion you do not have to use Microsoft Expression Blend for that purpose.
    Actually you have a variety of options here. 
    For example you may define a simple Border as follows, no matter horizontal/vertical:


    <Border Background="White" BorderBrush="#FF848484" BorderThickness="0,1,0,0" Height="2"/>
            

    You may adjust those according to the desired layout of your application. 
    On the other hand you may also use a GridSplitter for that purpose.
