You can display check boxes for each of xamMenu’s items. This require setting the IsCheckable property to true on the XamMenuItem object. Each XamMenuItem object has a Checked event that you can handle to provide custom functionality when the end user checks an item. Further, each item has an IsChecked property you can use to determine its check state or to set its check state in code.
The following code shows you how to display check boxes for items in xamMenu.
In XAML:
<ig:XamMenu x:Name="xamMenu1" Height="25" MenuOrientation="Horizontal">
<!-- TODO: Add menu items-->
<ig:XamMenuItem Header="View">
<ig:XamMenuItem Header="Property Window" IsCheckable="True" />
<ig:XamMenuItem Header="Editing Window" IsCheckable="True" />
</ig:XamMenuItem>
</ig:XamMenu>
In Visual Basic:
' Create menu Dim menu1 As New XamMenu() Me.LayoutRoot.Children.Add(menu1) menu1.Height = 25 ' Create Shop menu item Dim parentItem As New XamMenuItem() parentItem.Header = "View" menu1.Items.Add(parentItem) ' Create child menu item Dim childItem As New XamMenuItem() childItem.Header = "Property Window" childItem.IsCheckable = True parentItem.Items.Add(childItem) ' Create child menu item childItem = New XamMenuItem() childItem.Header = "Editing Window" childItem.IsCheckable = True parentItem.Items.Add(childItem)
In C#:
// Create menu XamMenu menu1 = new XamMenu(); this.LayoutRoot.Children.Add(menu1); menu1.Height = 25; // Create Shop menu item XamMenuItem parentItem = new XamMenuItem(); parentItem.Header = "View"; menu1.Items.Add(parentItem); // Create child menu item XamMenuItem childItem = new XamMenuItem(); childItem.Header = "Property Window"; childItem.IsCheckable = true; parentItem.Items.Add(childItem); // Create child menu item childItem = new XamMenuItem(); childItem.Header = "Editing Window"; childItem.IsCheckable = true; parentItem.Items.Add(childItem);
