The Items collection of the RadToolBar object exposes the root items of a RadToolBar. The child buttons of a dropdown or split button can be accessed using the Buttons collections of these items.

This example demonstrates the server-side creation of the three types of toolbar items described above.

You can create a root RadToolBarButton by using the code below:

C#:

RadToolBarButton rootButton = new RadToolBarButton("Bold");
RadToolBar1.Items.Add(rootButton);

VB:

Dim rootButton as RadToolBarButton = new RadToolBarButton("Bold")
RadToolBar1.Items.Add(rootButton)

You can create a RadToolBarDropDown and add a checkable RadToolBarButtonto it by using the code below:

C#:

RadToolBarDropDown dropDown = new RadToolBarDropDown("Align");
RadToolBar1.Items.Add(dropDown);
RadToolBarButton leftButton = new RadToolBarButton("Left", true, "AlignGroup");
dropDown.Buttons.Add(leftButton);

VB:

Dim dropDown as RadToolBarDropDown = new RadToolBarDropDown("Align")
RadToolBar1.Items.Add(dropDown)
Dim leftButton as RadToolBarButton = new RadToolBarButton("Left", true, "AlignGroup")
dropDown.Buttons.Add(leftButton)
