Maybe it would be good to add this information to the general overview of how to use the ribbon, because I found the info using google because it was not available there and in an application usually there is just one window with backstage and all other windows can have the ribbon but usually not the backstage. thank you Reply

We can also use XAML to change the visibility/style of the BackStageButton

<syncfusion:Ribbon.BackStageButton>

<syncfusion:BackStageButton Visibility="Collapsed"/>

</syncfusion:Ribbon.BackStageButton>

<syncfusion:Ribbon.BackStageButton>

<syncfusion:BackStageButton Visibility="Collapsed"></syncfusion:BackStageButton>

</syncfusion:Ribbon.BackStageButton>

This does not work.

Can you provide a working sample?

This worked:

XAML

 <syncfusion:Ribbon x:Name="ribbon">
           <syncfusion:Ribbon.BackStage>
                <syncfusion:Backstage>
                </syncfusion:Backstage>
            </syncfusion:Ribbon.BackStage>

MainWindow.cs

        public MainWindow()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            ribbon.BackStage.Loaded += BackStage_Loaded;

        }

        private void BackStage_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            if (ribbon != null && ribbon.BackStageButton != null)
            {
                ribbon.BackStageButton.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
            }
        }

XAML:

       <syncfusion:Ribbon x:Name="ribbon">

            <syncfusion:Ribbon.BackStage>
                <syncfusion:Backstage>
                </syncfusion:Backstage>
            </syncfusion:Ribbon.BackStage>

And how to do that with RibbonControlAdv? There is no property called BackStageButton.

Hi Joakim

Thank you for using our Syncfusion products.

From your query, we have understood that you are asking about Windows Forms RibbonControlAdv. If your requirement is to hide the BackstageButton of Windows Forms RibbonControl, you need to disable the MenuButton property.You can refer it more in details in the following documentation link:
