Prevent control from being added to QuickAccessToolbar

Hello

Is there a way to prevent an control on the ribbon from being added to the QuickAccessToolbar? We currently have a combo box on the Ribbon and if a user addes that control to the QuickAccessToolbar it does not stay in sync with the source combo box.

Thanks
Patrick

Hi Patrick,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion Products .

It is possible to prevent a ToolStripItem to be added to the QuickAccessToolBar using the QuickItems_BeforeAddItem event. Please refer to the following code snippets and the sample that illustrates this:


void QuickItems_BeforeAddItem(object obj, RibbonItemEventArgs args)
{
if (args.Item.Text == this.toolStripEx1.Items[2].Text)
{
args.Cancel = true;
}
}

Please let me know if any concerns.

Thanks for the response. We will give this a try, but this is not an ideal solution because users will still see the item in the QAT menu. Is there a way to prevent the item from showing up in the menu too?

Thanks
Patrick

Hi Patrick,

Thank you for the update.

In the present we don't have built in support to prevent or disallow the item in the Customize Quick Access Toolbar dialog. We are planning to include the support for " Customize the Quick Access Toolbar Menu items " for RibbonControl Adv in the upcoming release (Volume 4). This will be available by October 1st week.

Please let me know if any concerns.

Regards,
Hema
