Namespace: DevExpress.XtraLayout

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraLayout.v24.2.dll

Declaration

C#

public void HideItem(
    BaseLayoutItem item
)

VB.NET

Public Sub HideItem(
    item As BaseLayoutItem
)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
item	BaseLayoutItem	A BaseLayoutItem descendant which represents the layout item to hide.

Remarks

The LayoutControl stores its hidden items within the LayoutControl.HiddenItems collection. To verify whether an item is hidden use the BaseLayoutItem.IsHidden property.

End-users can hide and show layout items by moving them to or from the Customization Form via drag and drop. To show a hidden item use the BaseLayoutItem.RestoreFromCustomization method.

Note

When layout items are hidden to the Customization Form, they do not retain their positions in the layout. To preserve the position, use Visibility instead.
