IsVisible Property (ContextualTabGroup)

Returns/sets whether the ContextualTabGroup is Visible. When set to false, any RibbonTabItems in the ContextualTabGroup will be hidden.

Syntax

Visual Basic

'Declaration
 
Public Property IsVisible As Boolean

C#

public bool IsVisible {get; set;}

Remarks

The IsVisible property is used to show/hide the RibbonTabItem instances in the group's Tabs collection in a single operation.

Note: A RibbonTabItem will not be made visible if it has its System.Windows.Visibility set to Hidden or Collapsed regardless of the value of the group's IsVisible property.
