Customized Button Component. (Up and Down Arrow on Button Component)

Hi !

I welcome the comment from the experts' end !

Let me elaborate my query more specifically.

I am new to VB.NET. I want the BUTTON COMPONENT customized with UP
AND DOWN ARROW MARKS so that I can
avail the drop down (contents) functionality on the click of that down-
arrow on the button. And vice-versa on the up-
arrow on the same button.

So how to customize this button to get this functionality over it ????

I would really appreciate fthe responses .


Thanks,
Manasi

I'm not completely sure what your asking. To clarfiy, you want a button control that acts and behaves just like a button, but with the added functionality of a combobox drop down?

manasi, thanks for the PM, but i would have responded on the forums anyway. You asked me for a customised Button control with a dropdown section you can add controls to. Well here it is, i haven't done much with the graphics on the button or the drop down menu. I'll leave that bit up to you. It's about 12:30 am and i've only just finished it, so sorry for the complete lack of commenting. However the implementation is fairly simple so it shouldn't take long to work out. I actually quite enjoyed making this. Hope this is what you wanted....


EDIT: Just noticed that you are on .Net 2.0 hope it upgrades ok.

I am working over it and by creating customized button control, modifying it as per the need, I hope it would surely work out.

Thanks a lot.

Vis,

Can I ask you to also post a VS2005 version of this attached sample please ? The current sample does not upgrade for me.

 

[vis781]

It upgraded just fine on this end. See the attached project...

I have this functionality working in my .Net 2.0's Sudoku game, in case you're interested
