Remarks

UXMenuBar is inherited from ISSelectionControl which means it contains properties to indicate and control the current selection such as SelectedIndex, SelectedItem, SelectedValue, SelectedValuePath, SelectedElement. You can bind these properties to a DataContext using object binding, or using MVVM pattern. To learn more about MVVM pattern, see MVVM Pattern Overview.

Any changes to one of the properties means that the current selection has changed, and it will synchronize the UI and other related properties automatically. To learn more about selection control see Items Control Overview.

The following example shows how to create a simple menu bar using UXMenuBar control.
