DocumentPreviewControl.UseOfficeInspiredNavigationPane Property

Specifies whether the Document Preview uses an MS Office-inspired Navigation Pane. This is a dependency property.

Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Printing

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Printing.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.Printing

#Declaration

public bool UseOfficeInspiredNavigationPane { get; set; }

#Property Value

Type Description
Boolean

true, if the Navigation Pane is enabled; otherwise, false.

#Remarks

By default, the Document Preview uses an MS Office-inspired Navigation panel. It speeds up the navigation through complex reports and provides searching for text. The Navigation Pane contains the Document Map, Pages, and Search Results tabs. Click the Navigation Pane button in the Document Preview’s toolbar to show this panel.

Set the UseOfficeInspiredNavigationPane property to false to disable the Navigation Pane.
