[Solved] How to Hide a Panel

[Simon]

Hi there, I have three panels and I want to hide the centre panel - how do I do this please?

I don't want to just make it zero width - I would like to hide it totally (including the sizing handle) until I need it.

Here is what I have tried thus far...

Me.mSplitContainer.SplitPanels("panFilter").SplitPanelElement.Visibility = Telerik.WinControls.ElementVisibility.Collapsed

Thank you in advance.

Hi, Simon,

You can use the following code snippet to hide the panels, but keep in mind that the space reserved for it would remain in RadSplitContainer.

 this.radSplitContainer1.SplitPanels[1].Visible = false;
 //or
 this.radSplitContainer1.SplitPanels[1].SplitPanelElement.Visibility= ElementVisibility.Collapsed;

If you need to remove the space for the panel as well, you can remove this panel from the SplitPanels collection:

this.radSplitContainer1.SplitPanels.RemoveAt(1);

Thus, you will have only two panels. Later, if you need it again, you can insert the split panel at the specified position.

This is amazing - thank you.

If I have a Minimum width set, does this code ignore that or do I have to remove the Minimum width please?

Thank you...

Hello, Simon,

I am not familiar with your exact setup. Can you please clarify which Minimum width you have set? Can you provide a code snippet of what you have on your end?
