Icon SplitButton

You can enhance the textual content of the SplitButton by adding image, predefined, or custom icons to it.

With a view to the web standards, it is better to use a background image because icons are used for decoration and not for representing structural content.

The SplitButton provides options for:

• Using the built-in Kendo UI icons. They are applied through the icon property and displayed as a background for the SplitButton. To see the full list of the web font icons in Kendo UI, refer to the article on styles and layout.
• Adding FontAwesome and other font icons. They are implemented by setting the required third-party CSS classes through the iconClass property.
• Adding image icons. They are applied through the imageUrl property of the component.

The following example demonstrates how to use the different types of icons in a SplitButton.
