Remarks

The CustomizeElements event enables you to customize the Web Report Designer’s UI elements. When implementing a handling function, use the objects passed as parameters. The first parameter passes the event sender that is the ClientReportDesigner object. The second one is an object with the following structure.

• Elements
  A collection of the Web Report Designer’s UI elements.

• GetById
  This method allows you to obtain the required element by its ID using the DevExpress.Reporting.Designer.Utils.ReportDesignerElements object. The following elements are available within this object:

  • MenuButton - the menu button in the upper-left corner of the Designer’s user interfaces.
  • NavigationPanel - the panel at the bottom of the Designer displaying opened report tabs.
  • RightPanel - the panel at the right of the Designer and containing tabs with the Field** List, Report Explorer and Properties Panel.
  • Surface - the design surface.
  • Toolbar - the Report Designer Toolbar.
  • Toolbox - the Toolbox containing report controls.

The code sample below demonstrates how to use this event to hide the Report Designer’s Toolbar.
