Changing visibility of richRibbonBar Tab

[Karl]

Hi,

It seems to me that changing the visibility of a richRibbonBar Tab is not working.

ie:

richRibbonBar1.ShowHomeTab = false;
richRibbonBar1.ShowInsertTab = false;  // ...etc

The tabs still stay visible.

Could you check this out?
Thank you,
Karl

Hi Karl,

Thank you for writing.

Indeed this property does not work, because it does not contain implementation. However, you can easily implement the desired property in RichRibbonBar project. Here is an example, on how to achieve this for the home tab:

[DefaultValue(true)]
       public bool ShowHomeTab
       {
           get
           {
               if (this.tabHome.Visibility == ElementVisibility.Visible)
               {
                   return true;
               }
               else
               {
                   return false;
               }
           }
           set
           {
               if (value == true)
               {
                   this.tabHome.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Visible;
               }
               else
               {
                   this.tabHome.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed;
               }
           }
       }

I hope you find this information helpful. We will consider adding implementation for these properties in the online version of the projects.
