Possbility to have PanelBarItems with fixed height and other PanelBarItems that take the rest of the available height equally
Items to automatically adjust position when PanelBar has no scrollbar. See attached project. DECLINED: AdjustPositionOfPanelBarItemsNoScrollBar SDK sample demonstrates an approach to customizing the RadPanelBarItems to include a ScrollBar when the RadPanelBar's vertical ScrollBar is Disabled. https://github.com/telerik/xaml-sdk/tree/master/PanelBar/AdjustPositionOfPanelBarItemsNoScrollBar

Add an Icon property to allow displaying images in the RadPanelBarItem Header. Declined: Adding such property requires also adding a visual element (Image) in the Template of the RadPanelBarItems. RadTreeView also has Image in its ControlTemplate and we have to admit this was our design mistake in the past. Such element makes the Style larger, makes the virtualization harder to support, slows down the performance. How To Add Image in RadPanelBar: In non-databound scenarios just add the Image in the Header: <telerik:RadPanelBarItem> <telerik:RadPanelBarItem.Header> <StackPanel> <Image Source="MyImage.png" Margin="5"/> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}" /> </StackPanel> </telerik:RadPanelBarItem.Header> </telerik:RadPanelBarItem> In databound scenario set the ItemTemplate of the RadPanelBar: DataTemplate x:Key="itemTemplate"> <StackPanel> <Image Source="MyImage.png" Margin="5"/> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}" /> </StackPanel> </DataTemplate> <telerik:RadPanelBar ItemTemplate="{StaticResource itemTemplate}"/> See the SDK example demonstrating those approaches: https://github.com/telerik/xaml-sdk/tree/master/PanelBar/AddHeaderIcon
Expose a property to easily control the expander indicator style and visibility. From Q1 2016 SP users will able to use the ExpanderStyle property of the RadpanelBarItem in order to style the arrow expander.
