Hi, Anton.

Actually, this looks promising!  It's strange, though.  If I click on the scroll bar to start scrolling, the menu disappears.  Is this because the scrollbar isn't technically part of the menu, therefore when you click outside the menu, the menu disappears?

Thanks.

Anton,

Thanks for the reply.

I played around with the IslandStyle property a little.  It might be useful if you knew ahead of time how many items would be in the menu, but if the menu's items are dynamic, you will have to figure out programmatically how high to make the menu.

For example, I set it at design time to:

<IslandStyle Width="160px" Height="320px" />

However, as you say, it dictates the exact width and height.  When my menu only had 5 items in it, the menu had all the items spaced out evenly, which put about 80px between items.  When my menu had over 20 items in it, only 13 items showed in the menu, but there was no way to get to the rest of the menu items (no scrolling).

If this is to be a viable solution, I need to be able to scroll through the menu when not all the menu items are visible due to the height of the menu.  As yet, I don't see how to do this.

Regards,

Steve
