ToolBarAppearance Enumeration
Specifies the type of toolbar to display.
Assembly: System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)
| Member name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Flat | The toolbar and buttons appear flat, but the buttons change to three-dimensional as the mouse pointer moves over them. | |
| Normal | The toolbar and buttons appear as standard three-dimensional controls. |
This enumeration is used by members such as ToolBar.Appearance.
Set the Appearance property of the toolbar to ToolBarAppearance.Flat to give the toolbar and its buttons a flat appearance. As the mouse pointer moves over the buttons, their appearance changes to three-dimensional. Button separators appear as lines rather than spaces between the buttons when the toolbar has a flat appearance.
The following example creates a ToolBar control, sets some of its common properties, and adds it to a Form. Delegates are also added to the ButtonClick and ButtonDropDown events. This example assumes a ToolBar named toolBar1 and an ImageList named imageList1 have been declared.
private void AddToolBar() { // Add a toolbar and set some of its properties. toolBar1 = new ToolBar(); toolBar1.Appearance = System.Windows.Forms.ToolBarAppearance.Flat; toolBar1.BorderStyle = System.Windows.Forms.BorderStyle.None; toolBar1.Buttons.Add(this.toolBarButton1); toolBar1.ButtonSize = new System.Drawing.Size(24, 24); toolBar1.Divider = true; toolBar1.DropDownArrows = true; toolBar1.ImageList = this.imageList1; toolBar1.ShowToolTips = true; toolBar1.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(292, 25); toolBar1.TabIndex = 0; toolBar1.TextAlign = System.Windows.Forms.ToolBarTextAlign.Right; toolBar1.Wrappable = false; // Add handlers for the ButtonClick and ButtonDropDown events. toolBar1.ButtonDropDown += new ToolBarButtonClickEventHandler(toolBar1_ButtonDropDown); toolBar1.ButtonClick += new ToolBarButtonClickEventHandler(toolBar1_ButtonClicked); // Add the toolbar to the form. this.Controls.Add(toolBar1); }
