Toolkit - Positioning toolbar items vertically

[MattNicol]

Using the Toolbar control from the ESRI Toolkit, is it possible to have toolbar items positioned vertically?

Hopefully I'm just missing something obvious!

You have to edit the template :

Open the project in Blend, rightclick the Toolbar and select to edit a copy of the template.
Select the stackpanel called 'RootElement'.
Change the orientation from Horizontal to Vertical.

Instead of using the toolbar, why not just put some buttons in a stackpanel? (that's essentially what a toolbar is). That way you get full control, and you are not locked into a toolbar.

It would be very helpful if you or someone post a sample on how to implement this?

Thanks in advance

agreed I did the simulation and there is this lovely vertical tool bar. But my ArcGis doesn't have this set up and I don't know what tool bar it was or how to get it!! (so frustrating)

StackPanels are among the core basic UI Panels that you need to know when creating UI layouts in Silverlight and WPF (the only more important one is probably "Grid").

You should hopefully be familiar with Buttons already.

 
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" VerticalAlignment="Top" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Margin="10" Background="White">
    <Button Click="Tool1_Click" Content="Tool1" />
    <Button Click="Tool2_Click" Content="Tool2" />
    <Button Click="Tool3_Click" Content="Tool3" />
</StackPanel>
