RibbonControl.AllowMdiChildButtons Property

Gets or sets whether MDI buttons for the current RibbonControl‘s child Ribbons are enabled.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraBars.Ribbon

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraBars.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Navigation

#Declaration

[DefaultValue(true)]
[DXCategory("Behavior")]
[XtraSerializableProperty]
public bool AllowMdiChildButtons { get; set; }

#Property Value

Type Default Description
Boolean true

true if MDI buttons for the current RibbonControl‘s child Ribbons are enabled; otherwise, false.

#Remarks

RibbonControls can be merged in MDI interfaces. If the AllowMdiChildButtons property is true, both parent and child RibbonControls display their MDI buttons (Minimize, Restore and Close). Setting the AllowMdiChildButtons property to false prevents child Ribbon Controls from displaying these buttons:
