Item Configuration in ASP.NET MVC Toolbar control

18 Feb 20223 minutes to read

The Toolbar can be rendered by defining an array of items. Items can be constructed with the following built-in command types or item template.

Button

Button is the default command type, and it can be rendered by using the text property. Properties of the button command type:

Property Description
text The text to be displayed for button.
id The ID of the button to be rendered. If the ID is not given, auto ID is generated.
prefixIcon Defines the class used to specify an icon for the button. The icon is positioned before the text if text is available or the icon alone button is rendered.
suffixIcon Defines the class used to specify an icon for the button. The icon is positioned after the text if text is available. If both prefixIcon and suffixIcon are specified, only prefixIcon is considered.
width Used to set the width of the button.

Separator

The Separator type adds a vertical separation between the Toolbar’s single/multiple commands.

@using Syncfusion.EJ2.Navigations;

@(Html.EJS().Toolbar("defaultToolbar")
    .Width("300px")
    .Items(new List<ToolbarItem> {
        new ToolbarItem { Text = "Cut" },
        new ToolbarItem { Text = "Copy" },
        new ToolbarItem { Type = ItemType.Separator },
        new ToolbarItem { Text = "Paste" },
        new ToolbarItem { Type = ItemType.Separator },
        new ToolbarItem { Text = "Undo" },
        new ToolbarItem { Text = "Redo" }
    })
    .Render()
)
public ActionResult Index()
{
    return View();
}

If Separator is added as the first or the last item, it will not be visible.
