Item.BrowseType Property (ExRadialMenu)

By default, the BrowseType property is exBrowseItemChild, which indicates that the control displays the child items, once the user clicks / selects / browses the item. The BrowseType property specifies what the item displays, when the user clicks/browses it. The BrowseCustomType property indicates the custom object to be shown when the user clicks/browses the item. The BrowseCustom property gets or sets a value for specified property, when browsing custom control.

When an item is browsing, it can display any of the following:

child items ( BrowseType property is exBrowseItemChild )
radial-slider ( BrowseType property is exBrowseItemCustom, and BrowseCustomType property is exRadialCustomSlider )

gauge control ( BrowseType property is exBrowseItemCustom, and BrowseCustomType property is exRadialCustomGauge ). The control displays/edit data using the using the Exontrol's ExGauge component.

The following samples show how you can add new items / children to the control :
