disable hiding toolbar

[Terry Foster]

I have a non-dockable, floating toolbar that I would like to not let the user allow to close. How can I do this?

Thanks,
Terry

Hi Terry, The following Essential Tools Knowledgebase Article addresses this issue: How do I prevent the user from modifying the visibility of a particular toolbar Regards, Arun

Hi Terry,

The following code should do the job.

/* associates the ToolBar with the DockingManager and sets it as a floating control initially */
this.dockingManager1.FloatControl(this.myToolBar, this.myToolBar.ClientRectangle);

/* sets the ToolBar as float only and it can never be docked */
this.dockingManager1.SetFloatOnly(this.myToolBar, true);

/* hides the 'X' close button on the ToolBar so that it can never be closed */
this.dockingManager1.SetCloseButtonVisibility(this.myToolBar, false);

Please let me know if this helps. Thanks for choosing Syncfusion products.

The problem I see now is that all three methods of the 'DockManager' class you suggested take a 'Control' class object, which the Syncfusion 'Bar' class does not derive from. How can I do what you've suggested with a syncfusion toolbar that I've created in design mode?

Thanks,
Terry

Hi Terry,

I had misinterpreted your query earlier and assumed that you were referrring to WinForms ToolBar control. Since you are using Syncfusion ToolBar, please refer to the Knowledgebase article pointed out by Arun above for this purpose. I apologise for the confusion caused.
