Hi,

How do I remove/hide buttons specifically 

  • Html Document 
  • Rich Text Format
  • Plain Text
  • XAML Document

from the backstage view of the Rich Text Editor Ribbon Bar.

With a regular backstage view I could do something along the lines of

this.radRibbonBarBackstageView1.Controls.Remove(this.radButton1);

but here I can't access the backstage view.

Thank you in advance

Mohammed

Hello Mohammed,

Thank you for writing.

In order to hide the described buttons you can use the following code snippet:
public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    CustomRichTextEditorRibbonBar ribbonUI = new CustomRichTextEditorRibbonBar();
    this.Controls.Add(ribbonUI);
}
 
public class CustomRichTextEditorRibbonBar : RichTextEditorRibbonBar
{
    protected override void Initialize()
    {
        base.Initialize();
        this.buttonSaveHTML.Visible = false;
        this.buttonSavePlain.Visible = false;
        this.buttonSaveRich.Visible = false;
        this.buttonXAML.Visible = false;
    }
}

I hope this information helps. Should you have further questions I would be glad to help.

Regards,
Dess

Hi Christian,

The suggested approach is working well on my end. I am attaching my test project and a screenshot showing the result.

Hello Christian,

As I have replied in the support ticket on the same matter, I am attaching the updated project featuring one more approach to hide the save buttons: 
public partial class RadForm1 : Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadForm
{
    public RadForm1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
 
    }
 
    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        BackstageTabItem saveAsItem = this.richTextEditorRibbonBar1.RibbonBarElement.BackstageControl.Items["backstageTabItemSaveAs"] as BackstageTabItem;
        BackstageViewPage page = saveAsItem.Page;
        page.Controls[0].Controls["buttonSaveHTML"].Visible = false;
        page.Controls[0].Controls["buttonSavePlain"].Visible = false;
        page.Controls[0].Controls["buttonSaveRich"].Visible = false;
        page.Controls[0].Controls["buttonXAML"].Visible = false;
    }
}

About the errors in the attached screenshot, please delete the license file as it conflicts with your actual version: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/licensing/license-file-(licx). Let me know if you have managed to hide the buttons.
