Hello,
I want to to hide some layout items from various users and display them to other users (depending on their privileges). In a grid column, i can set the VisibleForCustomization property to false. Is there an equivalent property for a layout item?

Paulo,
I noticed that with this release, if i change the "Visible" property to FALSE for a layout item it does not appear in the Customize window. I like that. What property is there that let's me know if an item is "visible" in the layout control as opposed to just being available in the Customize window?
Thanks so much.
Greg
Hello Greg,
The item's Visible property now determines this item's visibility both on the Customization form and in the Layout Control container. If you wish to check if a certain item resides in the Customization Form's "Available Items" list, check the item's Parent property. This property is nil for items that are not in the Layout Control container.

Hello.
The Visible property of any dxLayoutControl Item allows us to control these Items' visibility on a Form. This property also should influence their visibility in CustomizationForm while customizing dxLayoutControl. But, now I see that Layout Items whose Visible property is switched off are still displayed in CustomizationForm. So we plan to fix this issue in the near future.
This has been an issue for years… Do you have any timeline?
