setting ToolStripSplitButton.DropDownButtonWidth to 0

Question

I want to use ToolStripSplitButton as a button only (no drop down menu) in my StatusStrip.

For this reason i want to not display the little arrow, but i can't do this.

Tried do this with setting ToolStripSplitButton.DropDownButtonWidth to 0, and it works successfull in windows 7 but not in windows xp.

how to get rid of the little arrow?

Answer 1

Use the ToolStripDropDownButton instead of the ToolStripSplitButton. The ToolStripDropDownButton has a property ShowDropDownArrow which will allow you to hide the drop down arrow.
