Is it possible to hide tab-area from ribbon?
posted

Hello!

I am curious if there is a way to hide the tab-area from the ribbon. I have included a manipulated picture to illustrate what I am looking for. In this scenario I have only one tab on the ribbon.

Thank you in advance for any hints or solutions to how I can be able to do this (in code)!

    Hello,

     

    It is possible if you made a custom implementation of creation filter interface like the following one:

     

    class MyCreation:IUIElementCreationFilter

        {

            #region IUIElementCreationFilter Members

     

            public void AfterCreateChildElements(UIElement parent)

            {

                RibbonTabItemUIElement ribonTab = parent as RibbonTabItemUIElement;

                if (ribonTab != null)

                {

                   ribonTab.Rect = new System.Drawing.Rectangle(0, 0, 0, 0);

                }

            }

     

            public bool BeforeCreateChildElements(UIElement parent)

            {

                return false;

            }

     

            #endregion

        }

     

     

    And in the load event of the form add the following:

    ultraToolbarsManager1.CreationFilter = new MyCreation();

     

    More about creation filter you could find here:
