RadRibbonView Backstage - WebBrowser

[DomiH]

Hi Telerik Team!

I’m evaluating your WPF control bundle for one of our new applications and have some problems regarding the backstage tab in combination with a WebBrowser control in the content area of my prototype. Although the backstage tab is active, the WebBrowser control is visible and overlaps my backstage-content. Is there a way how I can solve this problem?

Best regards,

Dominik

Hi Dominik,

You could change the visibility of the WebBrowser Control once the Backstage is opened. If you are using MVVM pattern you could bind to the IsBackstageOpen property of the RadRibbonView or simply use the ApplicationMenuOpenStateChanged event of the RibbonView to change the WebBrowser visibility:

private void On_ApplicationMenuOpenStateChanged(object sender, Telerik.Windows.RadRoutedEventArgs e)
{
    if (xRibbon.IsBackstageOpen)
    {
        this.webBrowser.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
    }
    else
    {
        this.webBrowser.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
    }
}

I hope this information help, please do not hesitate to ask further questions.

Kind regards,
