  1. POhiding a button from a plugin toolbar
    text
    copied!<p>I am developping a plugin for Visual Studio in C#. The plugin has a settings page and a few buttons in a toolbar to call commands.</p> <p>The problem is that in some circonstances, I want to hide a specific button. The best I was able to do is to disable the button.</p> <p>Is it possible to dynamically change it's visibility?</p> <p>EDIT: I wrote this question from my mobile, so maybe there is not enough details...</p> <p>I create the toolbar in the .vsct file (I created the menu in the same file)</p> <pre><code>&lt;Button guid="guidProductCmdSet" id="startCommand" priority="0x0100" type="Button"&gt; &lt;Parent guid="guidProductCmdSet" id="ToolbarGroup1" /&gt; &lt;Icon guid="Icons" id="startIcon" /&gt; &lt;Strings&gt; &lt;CommandName&gt;startCommand&lt;/CommandName&gt; &lt;ButtonText&gt;Start&lt;/ButtonText&gt; &lt;/Strings&gt; &lt;/Button&gt; </code></pre> <p>When the extension initializes, I create the commands:</p> <pre><code>var mcs = GetService(typeof(IMenuCommandService)) as OleMenuCommandService; if (null != mcs) { _startCommandId = new CommandID(GuidList.guidProducyVSICmdSet, (int)pkgCmdIDList.startCommand); var startItem = new MenuCommand(StartProcess, _startCommandId); mcs.AddCommand(startItem); } </code></pre> <p>After, I am able to disable some buttons from the toolbar like this:</p> <pre><code>var mcs = GetService(typeof(IMenuCommandService)) as OleMenuCommandService; var mc = mcs.FindCommand(commandId); if (mc != null) { mc.Enabled = false; } </code></pre> <p>I tried mc.Visible = false, but it does nothing.</p>
