Remarks

For more information about buttons, refer to Allowing the Display of Buttons.

To more accurately limit where buttons are displayed in the spreadsheet, you may combine any subset of the settings using the OR operator - for Visual Basic, it's Or; for C# it's the pipe character (|).

The primary button is the button in a button cell type, where the cell itself is a button. The secondary buttons are the other secondary buttons in a cell, such as the drop-down buttons in a combo box cell or the spin buttons in a cell.

Example

FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread fpSpread1 = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread();
FarPoint.Win.Spread.SheetView shv = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.SheetView();
DialogResult dlg;
fpSpread1.Location = new Point(10, 10);
fpSpread1.Height = 200;
fpSpread1.Width = 400;
Controls.Add(fpSpread1);
fpSpread1.Sheets.Add(shv);
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.Cells[0, 0].CellType = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.ComboBoxCellType();
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.Cells[1, 0].CellType = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.ComboBoxCellType();
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.Cells[1, 2].CellType = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.ComboBoxCellType();
dlg = MessageBox.Show("Do you want to hide the button for the combo box in the third column??", "ButtonDrawMode", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo);
if (dlg == DialogResult.Yes)
{
     fpSpread1.ButtonDrawMode = FarPoint.Win.Spread.ButtonDrawModes.CurrentColumn;
}

Visual Basic

Dim fpSpread1 As New FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread()
Dim shv As New FarPoint.Win.Spread.SheetView()
Dim dlg As DialogResult
fpSpread1.Location = New Point(10, 10)
fpSpread1.Height = 200
fpSpread1.Width = 400
Controls.Add(fpSpread1)
fpSpread1.Sheets.Add(shv)
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.Cells(0, 0).CellType = New FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.ComboBoxCellType()
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 0).CellType = New FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.ComboBoxCellType()
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 2).CellType = New FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.ComboBoxCellType()
dlg = MessageBox.Show("Do you want to hide the button for the combo box in the third column??", "ButtonDrawMode", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo)
If dlg = DialogResult.Yes Then
     fpSpread1.ButtonDrawMode = FarPoint.Win.Spread.ButtonDrawModes.CurrentColumn
End If
