RibbonControl.Minimized Property

Gets or sets whether the Ribbon Control is minimized.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraBars.Ribbon

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraBars.v18.2.dll

Declaration

C#

[DefaultValue(false)]
[Browsable(false)]
[XtraSerializableProperty]
public virtual bool Minimized { get; set; }

VB.NET

<DefaultValue(False)>
<Browsable(False)>
<XtraSerializableProperty>
Public Overridable Property Minimized As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
Boolean	**false**	true if the Ribbon Control is minimized; otherwise, false.

Remarks

Setting the Minimized property to true hides the contents of the RibbonControl’s pages. In this mode, only page headers are visible, and an end-user can click on a page header to display the page onscreen.

If the RibbonControl.AllowMinimizeRibbon property is set to true, the Minimize Ribbon command is available to end-users via the RibbonControl’s context menu. Selecting this command is equivalent to setting the Minimized property to true.

The RibbonControl.ShowExpandCollapseButton property specifies the visibility of the button that allows an end-user to hide/restore the RibbonControl’s pages (similar to the Minimized property). To access a bar item that represents the expand/collapse button, use RibbonControl.ExpandCollapseItem.
