Trying to customize the WPF-Designer

Hi,
I was able to alter a few things withing the designer. For example I was able to remove the "Open Report" Menu-Item from the Ribbons-MainMenu.
But how can I remove the same Item from the Quick-Access-Toolbar?

- Open-Item in Quick-Access-Toolbar

Further how can I prevent the contextmenu of the "Business Objects" from being shown?

- Context-Menu in the DataDictionary.

Thanks and Cheers,

Unfortunately, on current moment it is not possible. We have added your request in our to-do list. We will try to add it after release.

Hello.
We have made an improvement. The Open and Save buttons from the Quick-Access-Toolbar could be hidden with next options:
Code: Select all
StiOptions.Designer.Ribbon.ShowMainMenuReportOpen
StiOptions.Designer.Ribbon.ShowMainMenuReportSave
Thank you.

Hi again,
I just installed the newest version of the WPF-Reportengine (2013.3.1800) and now have another strange problem. When I call the WPF-Designer from code (objReport.DesignWithWpf();) using the "Office 2007 Silver"-Theme the Application-Button is only partially visible and the quick-access toolbar is missing completely.
It should look like this:

- Bild 5.png (50.45 KiB) Viewed 6254 times
But unfortunately looks like this:

- Bild 3.png (39.85 KiB) Viewed 6254 times
If I call the WPF-Designer directly ("C:\Program Files (x86)\Stimulsoft Reports.Wpf 2013.3 Trial\Bin\Designer.Wpf.exe") it looks fine. The problem occurs only when the designer gets called from code.
Any idea?
Cheers,
Pascal

Ok, I will give it a try.
I was just wondering because this bug wasn't described in the List of Changes for that update when I checked a few days ago.

Ok...
Another question related to the initial title of the thread:
Where in the code (or better WHEN) can I change settings of the Designer so that they are reflected when the Designer is shown?
Some settings like "StiOptions.Designer.CodeTabVisible = false;" work but "StiOptions.Designer.Panels.Dictionary.ShowContextMenu = false" do not...
I call the Designer using objReport.DesignWithWpf().
What am I doing wrong?

Pascal
