I need to loop through all controls/elements and child controls/elements on a form and disable the control/element if the Tag property = "someText".

The following code works for controls and child controls on the form, but not for radRibbonBar elements. 

=================================================
foreach (var control in GetControlHierarchy(this))
            {
                if (control.Tag != null)
                {
                    if (control.Tag.Equals("someText"))
                    {
                        control.Enabled = false;
                    }
                }
            }

 private IEnumerable<Control> GetControlHierarchy(Control root)
        {
            var queue = new Queue<Control>();

            queue.Enqueue(root);

            do
            {
                var control = queue.Dequeue();

                yield return control;

                foreach (var child in control.Controls.OfType<Control>())
                    queue.Enqueue(child);

            } while (queue.Count > 0);
        }
======================================================

How would I change the above code to include radRibbonBar elements?

Thank you,

Hello, James,

RadRibbonBar is a complex control. Its elements are organized in groups. You can refer to the structure article for better understanding. If you want to loop through all the elements in the ribbon bar you should iterate over all elements in groups in the RadRibbonBar structure.

The following forum thread might be quite useful on this topic: https://www.telerik.com/forums/iterate-trough-radribbonbar#faEsXbBwlE6tol9s7lvIig Feel free to modify and extend the example shown there.

I hope this information helps.

Regards,
