  • RibbonControl.SearchItemPosition Property

    Gets or sets the position of the Search box.

    Namespace: DevExpress.XtraBars.Ribbon

    Assembly: DevExpress.XtraBars.v25.1.dll

    NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Navigation

    Declaration

    [Browsable(false)]
    [EditorBrowsable(EditorBrowsableState.Never)]
    public SearchItemPosition SearchItemPosition { get; set; }

    Property Value

    Type Description
    DevExpress.XtraBars.Ribbon.SearchItemPosition

    The position of the Search box.

    Remarks

    Note

    Use the RibbonOptionsSearchMenu.SearchItemPosition property instead.

    A Ribbon Form with the RibbonStyle property set to RibbonControlStyle.Office365 displays the Search box at the top of the form (see the screenshot below). In other Ribbon styles, the Search box is displayed in a page header or is hidden.

    Ribbon Style - Office 365

    Use the SearchItemPosition property to display the Search box at the top of the Ribbon form, or in a page header, or to hide it from the Ribbon UI.

    Handle the CustomSearchItemPosition event to align the Search box within the caption of the Ribbon form.

    Note

    Skinnable forms (XtraForm) cannot display the Search box at the top of the form. Setting the RibbonControl.SearchItemPosition to SearchItemPosition.Caption hides the search box.
