What's the WPF equivalent of a Winform ToolStripContainer?

Or what control/method I should be using to achieve the same?

I've just started transitioning from Winforms over to WPF and I tried googling as well as search on SO for the same question but to no avail. So I'm guessing it has to do more with the fact that WPF has a different method of approach entirely. I tried looking at DockPanel but I'm still quite unsure how to handle the menus/orientations and especially user-interations to reposition said menus and toolbars.

I know there are a lot of ways to achieve the same thing in WPF. But even so, what's the standard method for handling Menus like how a toolstripcontainer does?

Solution

  • There's no out-of-the-box control equivalent for ToolStripContainer in WPF.

    But there are lots of commercial controls such as Telerik RadToolBar or DevExpress DXBars. Click the links to see their preview.

    Commercial controls for WPF are mature for years so they are worth to buy.
