PdfViewer - Customize Menu items

[Eric Hinkle]

Hi,

I would like to use your current version PDFVIEWER for WPF but I want to limit some areas like LOAD, Save and/or Print
Could I get a complete sample template So I can edit these areas?
Please also include the left side options also (thumbnails, bookmarks...etc) in the template

While working with copyrighted documents, the option to save or print could violate some rights.
I would need to turn on or off some options depending on individual document rights.

(work around could be set in  PDF file security options at creation)

Meanwhile I will try some suggestions on this thread
https://www.syncfusion.com/forums/107994/disabling-toolbar-buttons-in-pdfviewercontrol

I tried  PdfViewerControl1.ToolbarSettings.ShowFileTools = false;

while this works it eliminates all options Open/Save/Print at once instead of individualy

Thanks

Eric

Hi Eric, 

 

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support. 

 

On further analysis, we can achieve the requirement of “Disable the PdfViewerControl toolbar and left pane elements individually” using the below code snippet, 

 

 

//Get the instance of the toolbar using its template name 

DocumentToolbar toolbar = pdfViewerControl.Template.FindName("PART_Toolbar", pdfViewerControl) as DocumentToolbar; 

 

//Get the instance of the open file button using its template name 

Button openButton = (Button)toolbar.Template.FindName("PART_ButtonOpen", toolbar); 

//Set false to disable the button.  

openButton.IsEnabled = false; 

 

//Get the instance of the left pane using its template name 

OutlinePane outlinePane = pdfViewerControl.Template.FindName("PART_OutlinePane", pdfViewerControl) as OutlinePane; 

 

//Get the instance of the thumbnail button using its template name 

ToggleButton thumbnailButton = (ToggleButton) outlinePane.Template.FindName("PART_ThumbnailButton", outlinePane); 

thumbnailButton.IsEnabled = false; 

 

 

We have created a sample for the same and it can be downloaded from below link, 

 

https://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/directtrac/155391/ze/Forum155391-1927716506  

 

After ran the sample, please click the “Disable” button to disable the open, save, print, left pane elements. 

 

Please find the other toolbar button names from the below UG documentation,

The left pane elements names are available in the above sample. 

 

Please let us know the provided solution meets your requirement.

Hi,

seems that your example doesn't work anymore (in version 18.4.0.34), probably the template has been changed resulting in openButton being null and rest of the code is failing. And also provided help link has old info in there.

Can you please provide an updated example? What I need is to hide Open and Save (as) buttons and move print button to the main toolbar - I don't want to have it in popup.

Thank you!

Hi Ondrej, 

 

Please find the details below, 

 

Query	Details
seems that your example doesn't work anymore (in version 18.4.0.34), probably the template has been changed resulting in openButton being null and rest of the code is failing. And also provided help link has old info in there.	Sorry for the inconvenience caused,    In our recent release 2020 Volume 4 release (18.4 version), we have added “Save As” support in our control. Based on user convenience, we have grouped the File Menu items (Open, Save, Save As and Print) into a Single Toggle Button. The Button controls Open, Save and Print are now changed to Menu item. We will update the UG contents with the above-mentioned information.
Can you please provide an updated example? What I need is to hide Open and Save (as) buttons and move print button to the main toolbar - I don't want to have it in popup.	Based on your requirement we have created a sample, in which we have removed the File menu items from the toolbar wrap panel and added a button for Print.  Sample can be downloaded from the below link, https://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/forum/155391/ze/PdfViewerWPF1294043857.     Please let us know whether the provided sample is helpful to achieve your requirement or if you need any further assistance on this.
