Disable Make New Folder button in RadBrowseEditor

[Priyam]

How do I disable "Make New Folder" button in RadBrowseEditor dialog? Also, I want to re-size the dialog on user preference, How do I achieve this?

Hi Priyam,

Thank you for writing.

RadBrowseEditor uses the standard .NET dialogs and the current dialog can be accessed via the Dialog property of the control. I assume that you are using FolderBrowseDialog and if so, you can use its ShowNewFolderButton property to disable the new folder button:

radBrowseEditor1.DialogType = BrowseEditorDialogType.FolderBrowseDialog;
FolderBrowserDialog folderDialog = (FolderBrowserDialog)radBrowseEditor1.Dialog;
folderDialog.ShowNewFolderButton = false;

More information about this dialog type can be found here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.folderbrowserdialog(v=vs.110).aspx.

I hope this helps.

A quick follow up. In regards to the resizing question, the dialog provides a grip so the user can resize it. Unfortunately, there is no API for programmatically resizing the dialog. I found a suggestion here which you might want to try if it would work: http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?559882-Resize-Folder-Browser-Dialog&p=3459822#post3459822.
