Hi guys, I would like to have a selection function like in a DropDownList, but not with lines of text to pick, but with images preferredly arranged as a grid instead of a list. See the attached image to see what I mean ;).

Is this possible in a DropDownList or another Telerik control?

A workaround  I made up, of course, by cancelling the opening event of the DropDownList and make some panel with images visible. But that is worked pretty far around.

Thank you in advance!

Hello,  

The provided screenshot is greatly appreciated. 

In order to achieve a similar design, it is appropriate to use a RadPopupEditor and host a RadListView with icon view in its container. The IconView displays the list items in icons, in a manner that you surely are familiar with from the Windows Explorer. Its Orientation property determines how the icons will be displayed:

The following help articles are quite useful about how to get started with both controls and achieve the requirement you have:

I hope this information helps. If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me.
