How to automatically hide button in start menu after clicking it?

[Nismah]

Hey
I added a button in the start menu of RadRibbonBar. The problem is the button stays visible on the screen even after clicking it. How do I hide the start menu after the button is clicked?

Hello Nismah,

Thank you for writing. 

Please refer to the following code snippet demonstrating how close the application menu's popup when clicking the button:

public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    RadApplicationMenuDropDown menu = this.radRibbonBar1.RibbonBarElement.ApplicationButtonElement.DropDownMenu as RadApplicationMenuDropDown;

    RadButtonElement btn = new RadButtonElement();
    btn.Text = "Click";
    btn.Click += btn_Click;
    menu.ButtonItems.Add(btn);
}

private void btn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    RadApplicationMenuDropDown menu = this.radRibbonBar1.RibbonBarElement.ApplicationButtonElement.DropDownMenu as RadApplicationMenuDropDown;
    menu.ClosePopup(RadPopupCloseReason.Mouse);
}

I hope this information helps. Should you have further questions I would be glad to help.
