Remarks

ToolStripDropDownButton looks like ToolStripButton, but it shows a drop-down area when the user clicks it. Hide or show the drop-down arrow by setting the ShowDropDownArrow property. ToolStripDropDownButton hosts a ToolStripOverflowButton that displays items that overflow the ToolStrip.

Use the ToolStripDropDownButton to activate familiar drop-down controls such as color pickers. Set the ShowDropDownArrow property to true to more clearly indicate to the user that further options are available on the drop-down list.
