Hide Title bar

[Rajkumar Chityal]

Hi,
  Is there anyway to hide the title bar of the ribbonbar control?, I am using ribbon bar control in one of our views in our app, I do not want the title bar of showing up on that screen.

Thanks,
Raj.

Hello Rajkumar Chityal,

Thank you for writing. 

Please consider the following code snippet in order to remove the title bar out of RadRibbonBar. Additionally, I have added two more lines of code which will allow you to remove the QuickAccessToolBar and the "Start" button in case you want to hide them as well:

//remove the title bar
            radRibbonBar1.RibbonBarElement.Children[1].Visibility = Telerik.WinControls.ElementVisibility.Collapsed;
            //remove the quick access toolbar
            radRibbonBar1.RibbonBarElement.Children[0].Visibility = Telerik.WinControls.ElementVisibility.Collapsed;
            //remove the start button
            radRibbonBar1.RibbonBarElement.Children[3].Children[1].Children[1].Visibility = Telerik.WinControls.ElementVisibility.Collapsed;

I hope you find this information helpful. If there is anything else I can assist you, do not hesitate to contact me.

It would be very helpful to add properties for removing those elements.

Actually, this code does not work for the 2013.1 version of the ribbon bar. The above lines appear to do nothing.

Any other way to remove the objects?

Hi Aaron,

Here is the code you can use it the latest version and the properties you can use to access the elements mentioned:

radRibbonBar1.RibbonBarElement.QuickAccessToolBar.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed;
radRibbonBar1.RibbonBarElement.ApplicationButtonElement.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed;
radRibbonBar1.RibbonBarElement.RibbonCaption.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed;

I hope that you find this useful.

Hi,

so I tried to collapse the QuickAccessToolBar and the RibbonCaption while using the Windows8 theme.
The result looks kinda weird because the ApplicationButtonElement is placed below the tabs ... see screenshot.

Regards,
Philip

Hello Philip,

You have two options to resolve this case:
1. Set the Visibility of the RibbonCaption to Hidden:

radRibbonBar1.RibbonBarElement.RibbonCaption.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Hidden;

or 
2. Set the Top Margin of the ApplicationButtonElement to 0

radRibbonBar1.RibbonBarElement.ApplicationButtonElement.Margin = new Padding(
                radRibbonBar1.RibbonBarElement.ApplicationButtonElement.Margin.Left,
                0,
                radRibbonBar1.RibbonBarElement.ApplicationButtonElement.Margin.Right,
                radRibbonBar1.RibbonBarElement.ApplicationButtonElement.Margin.Bottom)

I hope this helps.
