Hi Kostas,

You have to get the RibbonMenuItem, change the visible property and then Set the changed Item.

Here an short example that uses GetItemByTag to get the item. You may also use different ways.

RibbonMenuItem lrmi_Item

IF rbb_menu.GetItemByTag ("TheTagOfTheItemYouWantToGet", lrmi_Item) = 1 THEN
	lrmi_Item.Visible = FALSE
	rbb_menu.SetItem (lrmi_Item)
END IF

Hi René



You can't use the GetItemByTag function with RibbonMenuItem. Returns -1

It is a little bit more tricky to make a RibbonMenuItem invisible

Pau Haro has the solution here

Thanks a lot

Ok. RibbonMenuItem is also used for the application menu (RibbonApplicationMenu). In this case it works with GetItemByTag.

As Pau shows the items of RibbonMenu seems not to be accessible from RibbonBar but only from parent RibbonMenu.
