Property Value

Type	Description
DevExpress.XtraBars.Ribbon.SearchItemPosition

The position of the Search box.

Remarks

Note

Use the RibbonOptionsSearchMenu.SearchItemPosition property instead.

A Ribbon Form with the RibbonStyle property set to RibbonControlStyle.Office365 displays the Search box at the top of the form (see the screenshot below). In other Ribbon styles, the Search box is displayed in a page header or is hidden.

Use the SearchItemPosition property to display the Search box at the top of the Ribbon form, or in a page header, or to hide it from the Ribbon UI.

Handle the CustomSearchItemPosition event to align the Search box within the caption of the Ribbon form.

Note

Skinnable forms (XtraForm) cannot display the Search box at the top of the form. Setting the RibbonControl.SearchItemPosition to SearchItemPosition.Caption hides the search box.
