Menus and Toolbars for WinForms Features

  • Enhance Your UI with Microsoft Office 2007 Styling

    Menus and Toolbars for WinForms supports Visual Styles that mimic the styles available in Office 2007 including Blue, Silver, and Black. Also choose from Office 2003 and Windows XP styles.

  • Global Key Shortcuts

    You can use shortcut and mnemonic keys to access a menu by the keyboard instead of the mouse. The shortcut keys are also usable for commands not present in any menus or toolbars.

  • Support for MDI Applications

    Special support for MDI (Multiple Document Interface) applications, including built-in MDI child windows list and hierarchical shortcut key processing. In MDI applications, you can restrict the amount of menu items the list displays, show hidden MDI windows in the menu's list, and merge the menu items.

  • Create Collapsible/Expandable Pages

    Generate a highly navigational form with collapsible/expandable pages using the C1TopicBar control. This powerful control also offers the ability for you to use animation, such as smooth transitions, when collapsing/expanding pages.

  • Multi-level Menus

    Create a hierarchy of commands or options by adding submenus to the main menu.

  • Organize and Navigate Information Quickly

    Group information into distinct categories to help end-users organize and navigate information quickly with the C1NavBar control. It consists of a number of categories represented by preset buttons. Each button has a header which contains text and imagery as well as a panel for adding information to the button category.

  • Embed Controls in Toolbars

    You can place a control such as a text box, radio button, check box, and more on a command of a toolbar.

  • Create a UI with Tabs

    Create a familiar tab control interface, where several overlaying pages (each of which contains arbitrary controls) are accessible via tabs at the side of the control using the C1DockingTab control. With the easy-to-use editors you can quickly edit the tab appearance such as the tab style, size, and layout. You also have control over the behavioral properties for closing tab pages, rearranging tabs, and mouse over effects for tab pages.

  • Add Context Menus to Your Application

    You can add a context menu to any arbitrary control on your form with the C1ContextMenu component, which is a command with one or more sub-items (that is, a command with a submenu).
