Helo,

Following on from a piece of code I found in the forums which shows how to add a button to a text box. I can't seem to figure out how to remove it! - Can anybody help?

Thanks
Public Sub AddButton()
 
        Dim buttonElement As New RadButtonElement("...")
        AddHandler buttonElement.Click, AddressOf buttonElement_Click
 
        Dim textBoxItem As RadTextBoxItem = Me.RadTextBox1.TextBoxElement.TextBoxItem
        textBoxItem.Alignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleLeft
        Me.RadTextBox1.TextBoxElement.Children.Remove(textBoxItem)
 
         
 
        Dim dockLayoutPanel As New DockLayoutPanel()
 
        dockLayoutPanel.SetDock(textBoxItem, Telerik.WinControls.Layouts.Dock.Left)
        dockLayoutPanel.SetDock(buttonElement, Telerik.WinControls.Layouts.Dock.Right)
 
 
        dockLayoutPanel.Children.Add(buttonElement)
        dockLayoutPanel.Children.Add(textBoxItem)
        Me.RadTextBox1.TextBoxElement.Children.Add(dockLayoutPanel)
 
    End Sub

Hello Terry,

Thank you for writing.

Here are a couple of methods demonstrating how to completely remove the button, how to hide it and how to show it, considering that you added it with the method mentioned:
     Sub RemoveButton()
       Me.RadTextBox1.TextBoxElement.Children(2).Children.RemoveAt(0)
   End Sub
 
   Sub HideButton()
       Me.RadTextBox1.TextBoxElement.Children(2).Children(0).Visibility = Telerik.WinControls.ElementVisibility.Collapsed
   End Sub
 
   Sub ShowHiddenButton()
       Me.RadTextBox1.TextBoxElement.Children(2).Children(0).Visibility = Telerik.WinControls.ElementVisibility.Visible
   End Sub

I hope that you find this information useful.
 
Regards,
