Hi,

I created a custom adxRibbonTab with the IdMso -> 'TabMail' on Ribbons -> 'OutlookExplorer'. The tab contains an adxRibbonGroup which contains 4 adxRibbonButtons.
What I'm trying is to hide one or more buttons while Outlook is running, but it won't work with the 'Visible' flag. The 'Enable' flag is working without any problems, but I want them invisible.
Is there a way to get the 'Visible' flag working?

Thanks, and kind regards,
Birger

Hello Birger,

Please check whether setting ADXRibbonButton.Visible=false works for you if invoking that code in the Click event of a test Ribbon button.

Hi Adrei,

I've tried - it's not working even in the click event handler itself.
Any other ideas?

Thanks and regards,
Birger

Hello Birger,

Could you please send me that bit of code? Also, I'd need to see the declarations and settings of these buttons; see the InitializeComponent method of the add-in module.

Hello Andrei,

I will do a partial rebuild of the project and try to reproduce the behavior. I will then either send you the implementation or try to investigate what’s wrong with the main project.
Will get in touch with you soon.

Regards,
Birger

Hi Andrei,

I did a rebuild of the button structure in a clean project and switching the button to invisible was no problem. What I did then was deleting the button structure of the main project and did the exact rebuild of the test project. As soon as I was trying to hide the button in the main project context, it was not working anymore.

Thanks in advance,
Birger

Unfortunately I can not share code due an NDA. The issue is only reproducible in the main/commercial project, when I create a new clean project, I'm not able to reproduce the issue. Is it possible, the issue is caused because the main project was created a few years ago (2014)?

I don't know. I suggest that you create a copy of your project and cut out the things that don't relate to these Ribbon buttons. Also, you can remove (replace) any sensitive information. If this can help, we are ready to sign any reasonable NDA.
