The dbicExplorerBar control is capable of rendering itself similar to a variety of different parent/child node list controls. To assist the developer in achieving a particular stylized look and feel the dbicExplorerBar control has 5 preconfigured styles built in. The ControlStyle property is used to set the control into a preconfigured style. The property is available in design-time through the property inspector or via the Tasks menu in the top right of the control instance. The ControlStyle property can also be set at runtime in code. NOTE: After the ControlStyle property has been set the developer can continue to modify the individual style properties without causing the other style properties to be reset.
