Remarks

The SearchSettings method allows you to hide search actions or disable asynchronous search in Document Preview in Web Reporting.

This property gives you access to the following properties:

SearchEnabled

Allows you to hide the search actions.

UseAsyncSearch

Specifies whether the Web Document Viewer uses asynchronous search.

The following code snippet hides Search buttons (Ribbon and Side Panel) in the Report Designer Preview:

@{
    var designerRender = Html.DevExpress().ReportDesigner("reportDesigner")
        .Height("100%")
        .ReportPreviewSettings(
            p=>p.SearchSettings(
                s=>s.SearchEnabled = false))
        .Bind(new TestReport());
    @designerRender.RenderHtml()
}

If you bind the Web Report Designer control to a ReportDesignerModel object, use the ReportPreviewSettings(Action<ReportPreviewSettings>) property instead:

HomeController.cs

public class HomeController : Controller {
        public IActionResult ReportDesigner(
            // ...
            var designerModel = reportDesignerModelBuilder
                .Report(reportName)
                .ReportPreviewSettings(
                    p => p.SearchSettings.SearchEnabled = false)
                .DataSources(x => {
                    x.Add("Northwind", ds);
                })
                .BuildModel();
            return View(designerModel);
        }
}
