Summary

XtraNavBar Suite by Developer Express

Easily Enable the Look and Feel of MS Outlook in your next .NET application. With the XtraNavBar, you can incorporate the newest look and feel standards introduced by Microsoft to your .NET applications. Whether you prefer MS Office, VS .NET, or Windows XP, the XtraNavBar offers you a myriad of interface options, so you can write less code and deliver more. And like all of Developer Express' Visual Studio.NET components, the XtraNavBar is available with full source code and supports all .NET languages.

What You Can Build with the XtraNavBar

Side Bars

Explorer Bars

Microsoft Office 2003/2007 Navigation Pane

How You Can Present Data in the XtraNavBar

Small Images Layout - Links are arranged vertically one under another. Link images are displayed to the left of their text

Large Images Layout - Links are arranged vertically one under another. Link text is displayed under the link image

Icons Flow Layout - the group displays only the icons of items arranged into multiple columns and rows

Link Selection Support - If you are using the SideBar or Navigation Pane paint style, you can enable link selection and only need to set the control's AllowSelectedLink property to True for this purpose. Additionally, you can specify whether the control has a single link selected or each group can have its own selected link. Use the EachGroupHasSelectedLink property to control this behavior.

Control Container Groups - Setting a group's GroupStyle property to ControlContainer automatically creates a container control within the group's client area. This enables you to fill the group with any Windows Forms controls just by dragging them onto the group and managing their layout in the same manner as on any other container control.

Intuitive Design-time Customization

On-Form Control Customization - The XtraNavBar control gives you the ability to add and customize groups, links and embedded controls directly on a form without the need for any dialogs
