Better SplitButton

Better SplitButton is a drop-down button control for .NET Windows Forms. It supports all versions of .NET framework and all Visual Studio versions. In spite of its name and the fact that it addresses drop-down menus, you can employ it as a simple button in the context menu just as well.

Regardless of how you want to use it, the tool enables you to maintain your interface clean by hiding some of the advanced functions that are not used frequently or perhaps, considered unnecessary by some users.

It is worth mentioning that the utility supports all Windows themes, even the recent ones and it is highly customizable. More precisely, you can personalize the menu for the application you are developing with various glyph images that can be assigned to every button state. Not only can these elements be adjusted, but you can also modify the size of the split accordingly.

As far as the compatibility goes, the program works well with a wide variety of tools, including but not limited to Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET), Visual Studio or .NET Client Profile. In fact, you will be happy to learn that you can check out several samples that are available with the installer.
