Property Value

Type Default Description
Boolean **true**

true if an end-user can enable the Multiple Columns view mode; otherwise, false.

Property Paths

You can access this nested property as listed below:

Object Type Path to EnableMultiColumnModeButton
LayoutView
.OptionsHeaderPanel.EnableMultiColumnModeButton

Remarks

The EnableMultiColumnModeButton property allows you to disable the corresponding button within the Header Panel and the shortcut (ALT+5) used to activate the Multiple Columns view mode. To prevent switching between view modes by an end-user and in code, the LayoutViewOptionsBehavior.AllowSwitchViewModes option needs to be set to false.

Use the LayoutViewOptionsHeaderPanel.ShowMultiColumnModeButton to hide the corresponding button within the Header Panel. If the button is hidden and the EnableMultiColumnModeButton property is set to true, the Multiple Columns view mode can still be invoked using the corresponding shortcut (ALT+5).
