Remove side bar

02-05-2010, 7:31 AM
Is there a way to remove the side bar completely? I've seen posts from 2007 where a workaround is mentioned, but I thought I'd check if there is a better solution available now.

I have set SidebarVisibility="hidden" and all our parameters are hidden, so the panel bar is empty, but it would be nice to be able to remove it alltogether.

Hello,
Is the question related to windows forms viewer or web viewer?

Sorry. It's the web viewer

Hello,
If  all report's parameters are hidden and SidebarVisibility property of WebViewer is set to Hidden then the sidebar does not open once the report is loaded in web-viewer. I just made sure that it works.  Does it work for you?
Or probably you want to totally remove sidebar so that it can't be opened using "Hide/Show Side Bar" toolbar button"?

Exactly. I've also seen that it starts as hidden, but basically I want to remove the "Hide/Show side bar" button as well.

In most cases our users wont have any parameters to edit, so there's really no point in having the side bar available

I've tried the workaround (hiding the side bar through css) but it would be nice with a cleaner solution

Hello,
There is no clean work-around, hiding the side bar through css or removing the sidebar element from the page DOM once it is loaded is only turn around what can be done for now. I have entered change request #142788 to address the problem.
