Hide RecentDocumentsManager

I want to hide the recentdocumentsmanager area in the application popup during runtime.

How can i do this?

there is not visibility property...

If you assign an alternative control to the RecentDocumentsControl property, that will be shown instead. You could always assign a control with a width of zero, to make the pane collapse altogether.

that is a very nasty solution

Thanks.

It would be more logical to have the visibility property available.

The reason there is no property is because this is explicitly prohibited by the Office 2007 Guidelines and License from Microsoft.

The reason is that i use the same ribbonbar (create a usercontrol) in a different window too, that uses a part of the visible interface where there is no room for recent documents.

Thanks.

I'm afraid it's Microsoft you need to talk to if you want to make this legal, not us :)
