How to dynamically add/remove a button from the ribbon based on some condition? (Ribbon XML)

Hi,
I have a ribbon (done using ribbon XML) with menu options. I need to remove few buttons from the menu dynamically based on some condition. Also, I want to change the label of another button. How to achieve this programmatically? (C#)
Thanks in advance.
Thanks Prasad

Hello Prasad,
Use callbacks for populating Ribbon controls such as menu, dropDown, gallery and etc. Then you can use the
Invalidate or
InvalidateControl methods of the
IRibbonUI interface to get your callbacks invoked when required. Thus, you will be able to delete the required item(s).
You will find the following articles in MSDN helpful:

Chapter 11: Creating Dynamic Ribbon Customizations (2 of 2)
To change the label of your controls at runtime you need to use the getLabel callback and call the Invalidate or InvalidateControl methods of the IRibbonUI interface. The following series of articles describe the Fluent UI in depth:

  • How to remove logoff button from the Portal?

    Could anyone help me to remove the logoff button from the Portal? I am using netweaver portal 7.0 Thanks!

    Hi Michael,
    Thank you for your reply!
    Can I do it through the portal or I have to do customized programming in NWDS? Could you please show me step by step in details?
    In the future the portal will be use SSO with active directory so user does not have to login/logoff. I think the session in the server will be closed after a couple of minutes. What do you think?

  • How do I completely remove a clip from the timeline?

    I just bought a mac pro and final cut pro x to go with it (after a couple of years of being used to using adobe on a pc) so apologies if this sounds like a stupid question, but how do I completely delete/remove a clip from the timeline instead of merely 'disabling' it?

    If you have a keyboard without the numerical keypad, then FN delete will delete the clip and replace it with a gap if it's on the primary storyline. If it's a normal Mac keyboard, then the back delete will do the trick.
    You can also lift a clip from the primary storyline by right-clicking and choosing lift from primary storyline, then just delete.

  • How do I add a print button to the tool bar?

    When I open the menu there is not a "print" button to add to the tool bar. Even under customize there is not a "print" button. How do I print from mozilla?

    The Print button in the "3-bar" Firefox menu button drop-down list opens the Print Preview window.
    You can click the Print button in the Print Preview window or use the Print item in the File menu (File > Print) or use the Ctrl+P shortcut to have access to the print selection item and other print setup options.
    You can look at this extension:
    *Universal Print: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/universal-print/
    There are other things that need attention.
    Your System Details list shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time Firefox starts.
    The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be there.
    You can check its content with a plain text editor (right-click: "Open with"; do not double-click).
    The user.js file is read each time Firefox is started and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.
    You can delete the user.js file if you didn't create this file yourself.

  • How to dynamically add new line series to the line chart in flex?

    i need to add line series dynamically..and each line  series should have a different data provider...

    A chart can have only 1 dataProvider which in my case is an ArrayCollection.
    The chart will update every time the dataProvider changes if you use binding.
    So you have to write a function that periodically populates the ArrayCollection with data from the server and the chart will update automatically.

  • How do I add a print button in the 'Additional tools and Features'? My print button has disappered.

    After the recent upgrade my print button disappeared from the Menu Bar. I tried to customize the menu bar by adding back the print button but the button does not appear in the list of 'Additional Tools and Features' in the left hand window. I cant locate the print button anywhere.

    Move your mouse to the top of the Firefox window, then right click.
    You will see a menu of the available toolbars. Select '''''Customize'''''.
    In the new window, look for the icon. When you find if, hold down
    the left button on it, and move it to where you want it to be.
    You can move any of the icons you want from here, but some
    icons are locked in place.

  • In idvd 6.0.1 how do I delete/remove files/folders from the media pane?

    for some reason some of the folders in my photos media pane are now empty? how do I get rid of those folders?

    iDVD is a tool for creating videoDVDs from some media (stills, video, music)
    it is NOT the Finder, which is the Mac's "app" to handle files&folders
    and it is NOT the "creator" of stills (iPhoto), videos (iMovie) or music (iTunes)

  • How do I add a FullScreen button to Project Playback Skin?

    How do I add a fullscreen button to the project playback skin? I know how to load another skin (using Project -> Skin Editor) and how to add a custom playback skin (paste custom skin SWF into C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 5\en_US\Gallery\Playbars) but I'm having a little trouble figuring out how to add a fullscreen button when editing the Flash AS3 so that it will show up in my custom playback skin when loaded into Captivate via Project->Skin Editor. Any ideas?

    Hi there
    I might assume that seeing as you were able to work the magick with the CC button it would be a simple task to pick apart the other elements and add the desired button without hijacking the CC button.
    I mean, if you are that deep in Flash territory and all, it doesn't seem like much of a stretch to figure out how the buttons are added, no?
    Cheers... Rick
