[CLOSED] Adding/removing (hide/show) tools in panel server side

[mrozik]

How can I add / remove (or show / hide) tools buttons in C # - in DirectEvent / DirectMethod?

I have tool definition:

<Tools>
<ext:Tool CustomType="my-tool" Hidden="true"  />
</Tools>

I try in DirectMethod show/hide tool - according ClientName value:

//test
var t = PanelOperator.Tools.Where(x => x.CustomType == "my-tool").FirstOrDefault();
            
 if (client.ClientName.Contains("IsInvalid") )
{
    t.Hidden = false;
}

 if (client.ClientName.Contains("IsValid") )
{
    t.Hidden = true;
}

but visibility doesn't change (Ext.NET 1.2)....

Hi @Pawel,

Yes, a Tool is not a real component in Ext.NET v1. So, it cannot be managed that way.

It is possible to show/hide via JavaScript. So, you can implement a JavaScript function and call it from server.

Here is an example of accessing tools client side via JavaScript. It should help you to implement a function to hide/show tools.
