Can't get viewer "Close" button reference

[Fabio Pagano]

I'm converting from 2008.2 to 2008.3.311.0. In my program that manages the viewer i had this code to get the viewer close button reference:

Code: Select all

Private WithEvents mbtnClose As Stimulsoft.Controls.StiToolButton

...

mbtnClose = TryCast(StiViewerControl1.ToolBar.Controls.Item("tbClose"), Stimulsoft.Controls.StiToolButton)

With 2008.3.311.0 version, using the ribbon gui, the "TryCast(StiViewerControl1.ToolBar.Controls.Item("tbClose"), Stimulsoft.Controls.StiToolButton)" returns nothing. Are there some differences in 2008.3.311.0 version to get the viewer close button reference?

Thank you.

Hello,

Can you say why you need reference to Close button?

Thank you.

The StiViewer control is contained in a my form. When close button (of the viewer) is pressed i intercept the click event and call a "Me.close" that closes my form.

In my form (that contais the StiViewer control) i have this code:

Code: Select all

'At module level i have mbtnClose variable:
Private WithEvents mbtnClose As Stimulsoft.Controls.StiToolButton

'In the "new" event of the form i assign the reference:

mbtnClose = TryCast(StiViewerControl1.ToolBar.Controls.Item("tbClose"), Stimulsoft.Controls.StiToolButton)

'In 2008.3.311.0 version the mbtnClose remains "nothing", in 2008.2 it worked.

'This is the event:
Private Sub mbtnClose_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles mbtnClose.Click
   'Closes the form
   Me.Close()
End Sub

I don't know if there is another way to intercept the close on the viewer control and close the container form.

Thank you.

Hello Fabio,

You can use Close event of StiViewerControl.
