Hi Team,
We're using "UltraTabStripControl" in our application, and we allow users to add tabs, so some user has many many tabs, say 100 of them.
We set the property UltraTabStripControl.ShowTabListButton = Infragistics.Win.DefaultableBoolean.True, so there's a drop down list when I click the tab list button. The list will show the 100 tab names, but 100 is not small, so not all the tabs are visible in ONE page, there's a button at the top and bottom of the list, but it's not easy to use, as I need to click multiple times to scroll some tab into the page.
My questions is, how can I enable the mouse scroll in this drop down list? So I can scroll the tab into the page easily rather than using the navigator button.
I noticed Visual Studio IDE has this feature, when I have many open files in tabs, the drop down list allows mouse scroll.
Thanks,
Shirley
Thanks for the update, if the original request is not able to achieve, I also want to check, instead of having the drop down tab list in one column, can we have the list in multi-column, so user can see all the tabs in one glance from the drop down.
Just to clarify... by "mouse scroll" do you mean scrolling the list with the mouse wheel?
Yes, mouse wheel scroll.
The dropdown list you are seeing here is a derived DotNet ContextMenu and unfortunately, it has no support for the mouse wheel or for displaying multiple columns. So I don't see any way to achieve this.
Hi Mike, thanks for checking. Just wonder, I noticed Visual Studio IDE (I'm using VS2019) has this feature, i.e., when I have many open files in tabs, the tab drop down list DOES support mouse wheel scroll. I would imagine that it's also some kind of DotNet ContextMenu, do you have any idea of that?
Presumably they are NOT using the DotNet Framework ContextMenu class. I have no idea what they are using, but if I had to guess, it's probably a native Windows context menu. Either way, whatever they are using, I don't see any way that would be helpful in solving this issue for you.
