How to: Remove Bar Items

• Sep 09, 2022

To remove a bar item, remove it from the RibbonControl.Items collection. This also removes all bar item links.

C#

// Removes the bar item and all its links.
ribbon.Items.Remove(barButtonItem1);

VB.NET

' Removes the bar item and all its links.
ribbon.Items.Remove(barButtonItem1)

The following example shows how to remove all bar items from a Ribbon Page Group.

C#

using DevExpress.XtraBars.Ribbon;

void ClearRibbonGroup(RibbonPageGroup ribbonGroup, RibbonControl ribbon) {
    var count = ribbonGroup.ItemLinks.Count;
    for(int i = 0; i < count; i++)
        ribbon.Items.Remove(ribbonGroup.ItemLinks.First().Item);
}

VB.NET

Imports DevExpress.XtraBars.Ribbon

Private Sub ClearRibbonGroup(ByVal ribbonGroup As RibbonPageGroup, ByVal ribbon As RibbonControl)
    Dim count = ribbonGroup.ItemLinks.Count
    For i As Integer = 0 To count - 1
        ribbon.Items.Remove(ribbonGroup.ItemLinks.First().Item)
    Next i
End Sub
