Vista - Dropdrown in toolbar

Dropdrown in toolbar

Hi,

I would like a dropdown widget in a toolbar (like the ones you use to select
a color)

Is there a standard control or way of doing that?

I tried to use a combobox and a menu but both show the widget contained in a
selectable item.
I could change the appearance by using a templated control but that seems
overly complex for such a simple task.

Thanks,

RE: Dropdrown in toolbar

You can use ItemsPanel and ItemContainerStyle/ItemTemplate on ComboBox to get
what you want.
ItemsPanel can handle the layout of those items. ItemContainerStyle and
ItemTemplate will give you item the UI you want.
