WPF Ribbon - Hide quick access toolbar

Question

how do you hide Quick Access Toolbar in a WPF\'s Ribbon?

Answer 1

The Quick Access Toolbar is automatically hidden when the Ribbon control is in a RibbonWindow. When it is not, it seems impossible to hide it. I have already worked hours on this issue and was unable to hide it properly. But there is one simple workaround: Place the Ribbon control inside of a Panel and give it a negative top margin so it will slide outside of the Panel. Set the Panel's ClipToBounds property to true and the QAT will be hidden. By the way - there are multiple Ribbon implementations for WPF, even by Microsoft themselves ("Fluent Ribbon" and "Microsoft Ribbon for WPF"), so next time you should mention which one you are talking about.
