Hi,

How can i Hide a MenuItem from MainMenu?

like that:
menu1.visible = false;

but the menu item dont have a propertie called visible.
 
I think you can only add and remove the .Net CF MenuItems.
Alternatively you could write your own menu.
 
You can't. You have to clear the menu collection then re-add them when
required.
 
hi,
I put code below to remove a specific item but not work.
any sugestion?

bool status = true;
if (status){
mainMenu.MenuItems.Remove(mainMenu.MenuItems[1].MenuItems[0]);
}

It should work since I do something similar in my code.
Just curious. What does your menu structure look like?
It appears that you're trying to remove a sub-menu item.

You can't do that on CF 2.0/3.5 as this is a bug I believe effects both
desktop and device frameworks which was introduced on 2.0 and wasn't fixed in
3.5. You will have to clear the submenu collection using the Clear method.
See if this bug report on Microsoft Connect clears things up for you:

Great that you got it working. Do you mind telling the group how you fixed
it, regardless of whether you solved it using the solution I mentioned or not
to benefit others ;)

Ok Simon,

The solution i find to remove a specific MenuItem.

I have a Menu structure like that:

- MainMenu

- MenuItem1 [0] - index

- MenuItem2 [1]
- SubItem1 [3]
- Subitem2 [2]
- SubItem3 [1]
- License [0]

In my MainForm Initialize i have a bool parameter (Licensed? Yes/Not):

if (cAppSettings.Licensed){
//I remove the License SubMenu
MenuItem mItem = mainMenu.MenuItems[1].MenuItems[0];
mainMenu.MenuItems[1].MenuItems.Remove(mItem);
}

Its work.
