Hello, Mark,
Indeed, when you shrink RadCommandBar, the elements which don't fit the available size got hidden. Usually, they appear in the oveflow drop down indicating that they exist but there is not enough space to be shown completely.
Note that each CommandBarStripElement offers the ItemOverflowed event which is fired when an item is moved to the overflow panel. Then, you can implement any custom logic for inserting a new CommandBarRowElement for example and adding the overflown CommandBarStripElement there in order to keep it visible. There is no automatic mechanism for that but you can implement it via code. You can insert a new CommandBarRowElement when all items get overflown in a certain strip element or move the strip element back to its original row once the RadCommandBar is resized to a width that the strip fits the original location. Note that it is important to specify the DesiredLocation of the CommandBarStripElement in order to be properly positioned. The DesiredLocation coordinates shouldn't exceed the bounding rectangle of RadCommandBar.
You can find below a sample approach which demonstrates how to move the strip to a new row. Note that this is just a sample approach and it may not cover all possible cases. Feel free to modify it in a way which suits your requirements best:
I hope this information helps. If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me.
