Gets or sets the ID of the look item.

Property Value

System.String

A string value of the look item ID.

This property is read/write.

Remarks

Look items are special items that allow you to define appearance settings that can be applied to other items. Each control inherits from BaseNavigator (e.g, Menu, TabStrip) maintains a collection of look items in LookItems property, through which you can access individual look items by ID. Here is an example on how to configure a menu control's look item:

[C#] 
MyMenu.LookItems["Product"].NormalStyle.CssClass = "product";

[Visual Basic.NET] 
MyMenu.LookItems.Items("Product").NormalStyle.CssClass = "product"

Another code example to dynamically create look:

[C#] 
//Create a new look object
EO.Web.MenuItem theLook = new EO.Web.MenuItem();

//Setting the ID of the look object
theLook.ID = "Test";

//Set the shadow of the submenu to grey.
theLook.SubMenu.Style.ShadowColor = Color.Grey;

//Add it to the menu's item look objects collection
menu.LookItems.Add(theLook);

//Menu item1 now uses the new look we just created.
//It's SubMenu has grey shadow.
menuItem1.LookID = "Test";

[Visual Basic.NET] 
'Create a new look object
Dim theLook as 
        EO.Web.MenuItem = New EO.Web.MenuItem

'Setting the ID of the look object
theLook.Name = "Test"

'Set the shadow of the submenu to grey.
theLook.SubMenu.Style.ShadowColor = Color.Grey

'Add it to the menu's item look objects collection
menu.LookItems.Add(theLook)

'Menu item1 now uses the new look we just created.
'It's SubMenu has grey shadow.
menuItem1.LookID = "Test"
