Hi

I am able to remove minimized button by IsMinimizedStateAllowed = false and remove title by giving empty string in to text of ADDXOIForm. But, that space is still there and my form is not starting at top. I have given some border style of Form which is not touching TOP ribbon due to space of Title and minimized button which is hidden.

Please check this screenshot https://prnt.sc/rji41w.

How can I remove top space?

Regards,
Lokesh

Hello Lokesh,

Start with ADXOlFromsCollectionItem.AlwasyShowHeader=false. Still, the header will be shown if there's a property enabled that makes the header necessary. Say, if you have ADXOlFromsCollectionItem.IsDragDropAllowed == true or ADXOlFromsCollectionItem.CloseButton == true.

Also note that regardless of these settings, the header will be shown if there's another pane (say, by another add-in) in the same region.

To hide that area unconditionally, you override the ADXOlForm.EnableHeader property. In this case your add-in will be responsible if the end user is unable to switch to another add-in's pane due to the absence of UI controls required to do this.

Hello Lokesh, 


public partial class ADXOlForm1 : AddinExpress.OL.ADXOlForm
{
    // ?Â?Ð?? ADXOlForm implementation
    protected override Type GetContainerControlType()
    {
        return typeof(MyContainerPane);
    }
}

public class MyContainerPane : ADXContainerControlOL
{
    public override Padding Padding
    {
        get
        {
            var padding = base.Padding;
            padding.Bottom = 0;
            return padding;
        }
    }
}
