You can add the textbox control and make it work like toolStrip using some design properties.

Are you specifically trying to get a multi-line textbox on to the toolStrip? Otherwise you should use ToolStripTextBox control - it's what it was designed for.

I designed TextBox by myself,contains many functions,so i want to add textbox control into toolstrip.

CHill60 2-Feb-15 3:50am

So you actually want to know how to add a custom control to a toolstrip?

For that, you have to design popup which will be displayed on hover of the element.

Using jquery in winforms is a PITA - why would you do it this way when WinForms offers much more straightforward solutions (Note the question was tagged WinForm)

Here is a solution for the question:

C#

TextBox txt1 = new TextBox();
ToolStripControlHost host1 = new ToolStripControlHost(txt1);
toolStrip1.Items.Insert(n, host1);  //n means the position of toolstrip item
