width of arrow-part in SplitButton

[Ingemar]

Hi,

I want to achieve approx. the same look as in the latest demo for the splitbutton i.e. large content with a small arrow to the right. Can this be done in a simple way or do I have to adjust the control template? I cant see anything in the code for, lets say, x:Name=findButton.

Best regards,

Hi Ingemar,

The look of the RadSplitButton in the latest demo is the default look/style of the button. Therefore when you add a RadSplitButton in your application, you won't have to edit the ControlTemplate unless you need to change this default style.

Please find attached a sample project illustrating how to set the content and DropDownContent of the RadSplitButton both in XAML and in code-behind. Take a look at it and let me know if this is what you had in mind.

All the best,

Hi Dimitrina,

First I would like to say thanks for your sample code. Perfectly simple and I had no problem solving my issue after that. I should have backed up myself and started with  "Hello RadSplitButton", but I got fooled by what I consider to be a bug (or at least a very unexpected behavior). Implicit styles for RadToggleButton and RadButton affects RadSplitButton. Your code with added style shows this.

Hi Ingemar,

I see your point. However, since the RadSplitButton is a UI combination of the RadButton and the RadDropDownButton this behavior is expected. Therefore it is best to set keys to the RadButtonStyle and RadDropDownButtonStyle and implicitly define where you need to apply them.

Let us know if you need more info.

Kind regards,
