[Martin Hamilton]

Can anyone tell me how to get rid of the extended area next to the button as shown in red in the attached image?

Hi Martin,

Your question has already been answered in the other thicket (ID 1482366) you have opened on the same topic. Please, see our answer there for more information.
We kindly ask you to use just one thread for a specific problem to contact us. Posting the same questions numerous times slows down our response time because we will need to review and address two or more tickets instead of one. Moreover, threads are handled according to license and time of posting, so if it is an urgent problem, we suggest you use a support ticket, which would be handled before a forum thread.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hi Nadya

"Part of the question" was answered 

I posted a second request to my Support Ticket since the first response had only a partial fix 

After applying the code - the Options and Exit buttons still show up

My second question was;

is it possible to remove the blank area (refer to 1) - although this is not a big deal, it would be nice
More importantly - how do I hide or collapse the Options and Exit buttons (refer to 2)

Maybe you can help me with this.

I'm primarily now only concerned with the second issue

More importantly - how do I hide or collapse the Options and Exit buttons (refer to 2)

Nadia, Not trying to be crass but for all of the typing you put into your response you could have just typed this instead.

MainForm.RadRibbonBar1.OptionsButton.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed
MainForm.RadRibbonBar1.ExitButton.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed

For anyone else out there that would like a concise set of routines (not all have been tested) - perhaps the following code will help get you up and running a bit faster.

#Region " Ribbon Bar "
    Friend Sub RemoveQuickAccessButtonCrescent(ByVal oRibbonBar As RadRibbonBar)
        oRibbonBar.RibbonBarElement.QuickAccessToolBar.ToolbarPositionMenuItem.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed
