    The Telerik UI for WPF OfficeNavigationBar is a powerful control that allows creating an intuitive navigation in your WPF app. Its look and feel mimics the one of Microsoft Outlook, where the user can select from navigation items with text and/or image.

  • Display Modes

    You can toggle between the two display modes of the control: compact and full. Compact mode is a text-only or image-only view for minimal designs and tight spaces, whereas Full mode combines both text and image for each navigation item. A single property allows you to choose the view mode that best fits the layout of your WPF app.

  • Overflow Menu

    Depending on the size of the control and the layout of the application, there may be cases where not all the control items are visible. The items that don’t fit the designated area will be automatically moved into the overflow menu. The user can access the menu by clicking the three dots and select an item from the overflowed list.
