Hidden Property (SpecialBoxBase)

Determines whether the object will be displayed. This property is not available at design-time.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property Hidden As Boolean
public bool Hidden {get; set;}
Remarks

The Hidden property determines whether an object is visible. Hiding an object may have have effects that go beyond simply removing it from view. For example, hiding a band also hides all the rows in that band. Also, changing the Hidden property of an object affects all instances of that object. For example, a hidden column or row is hidden in all scrolling regions.

There may be instances where the Hidden property cannot be changed. For example, you cannot hide the currently active rowscrollregion or colscrollregion. If you attempt to set the Hidden property of the active rowscrollregion to True, an error will occur: 'The following code will produce an error UltraGrid1.ActiveRowScrollRegion.Hidden = True

This property is ignored for chaptered columns; that is, columns whose DataType property is set to 136 (DataTypeChapter).

Example
Following code configures the look of add-new-box in the ultragrid. Add-new-box allows easy adding of rows by clicking on add new buttons in it. Each add new button in add-new-box corresponds to a band in the ultragrid.
