Hide/Collapse the File Tab

Question

Since I started using a Syncfusion theme in my WPF RibbonWindow application, a FILE tab has been added to my ribbon tabs (Default theme doesn't show the tab). I don't have any current need for the backstage functionality (I may at a later date) so I'd like to collapse or hide the FILE tab. How do I do this?

Yes, you can able to hide the visibility of BackStageButton using BackStageButton visibility's property. For this you can handle this in windows loaded event, as shown in following code : 
 
  
Code:[C#]  
  




 
private void RibbonWindow_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)   
{ 
        //Hide BackstageButton  
        _ribbon.BackStageButton.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed; 
 
 }
