I'm using the Telerik CUSTOM_MVVM_WPF example to build out a series of menus using
MVVM and RadMenuItems.
I would like to add the ability to hide/show menu items to the MVVM model.
How do I extend the sample to implement this functionality?
Thanks,
JohnB

Hi John,
From the provided description it seems you are referring to the Customization_MVVV example from our SDK Repository. If that is the case in order to achieve the desired functionality you need to add an aditional property of type bool inside the MenuItemViewModel. Using it you could be able to easily toggle the Visibility of the MenuItems by binding it to the Visibility property and using the built-in BooleanToVisibilityConverter.
We have modified the sample in order to demonstrate you that approach - notice how some of the items are not visible after the added boolean property is set to False.
Hope this helps.

Nasko: Is there an issue with the zipped project, or am I missing something.
The archive seems to be empty of .cs and .xaml files.

Hi John,
We have checked the attached zip file and it seems the archive could be unzipped as expected - there are no missing files. Could you please, provide some additional information about the issues you are having with the attached file? If you prefer some specific format instead of .zip, please let us know and we will try to attach the project with the desired format.

Hi:
This example works great. Thx!
How do I extend it to set the visibility dynamically in c# code behind.
For instance, I would like to set visibility of some menu items in response to a command.
Thanks,
JohnB

Hello John,
You could pass as CommandParameter the "MenuItemsSource" of the Menu and inside the command to find the desired MenuItem whose visibility you like to change. The IsVisible property is bound to the Visibility property of the RadMenuItem and changing its value will change the Visibility as well.
We have modified your sample with the described above approach - please, notice how the visibility of a specific item changes when the Button that is added to project gets pressed.
We hope this will help you.
