RadRibbonWindow without title bar

[enrico]

Hi, 

I've got a RadRibbonWindow like main window of my project.

I don't need the RadRibbonView but I would like to hide the title bar and insert the min/max/close button on my bar.

I attach the before and after pictures to understand that I intend.

How I can do this?

Thanks

Hello Enrico,

This is not supported out of the box, but I can suggest two approaches that you can try.

• Use a WPF native Window and remove its style in order to hide the borders and the title bar. Then add few buttons (close, minimize, restore) in the additional content of RadRibbonView. Note that in this case you will lose the ability to drag the window (because there will be no title bar) so you will need to implement it from scratch.
  
• The other approach is to use RadRibbonWindow. In this case you can extract and customize its ControlTemplate in order to remove the title bar.

I hope this information helps.
