ViewSelectorExplorerBarStyle.Office2007

Controls the appearance of the Explorer Bar.

default(Image)

Image displayed at the top of the view selector. This setting is often used to display a company logo. Or, if you have multiple applications, you may want to use a different logo for each application.

To remove the image, click the Image value with the left mouse button, and then press the Delete key on the keyboard.

0xFFFFFFFF

The background color of the image.

Indicates whether the groups are automatically expanded when the view selector is initially displayed. When the groups are expanded, the items within the groups are visible.

When the application is closed, the group expansion state is cached, and then restored when the application is subsequently restarted.

The ID of the hierarchy displayed in the view selector.

The ID of the hierarchy items filter. The filter removes or hides hierarchy items before the hierarchy is displayed by the view selector.

The HierarchyItemsFilterObjectTypeID setting is optional.

Defines which hierarchy is displayed based on the authenticated user’s role(s). Typically, the mapping includes each possible role with an associated hierarchy. The hierarchy-to-role mapping is evaluated in the order defined. When the user is in the specified role, the hierarchy that is associated with the role is used to populate the view selector.

The HierarchyID setting can be used as the default hierarchy. For instance, when the user is not in any role included within the mapping, the hierarchy represented by the HierarchyID setting is used to populate the view selector.

The HierarchyToRoleMapping setting is only applicable when an authentication service is configured for the application or when the role associated with an entry is left blank. Refer to the application’s AuthenticationServiceObjectTypeID setting.

If the MruListAllowUserToSetNumberOfViews is set to "true" then MaximumNumberOfViewsToList will serve as the default and the user will be able to set their own value via the context menu of the most recently used view list.

If the MruListAllowUserToSetNumberOfViews is set to "false" then MaximumNumberOfViewsToList will control how many views are listed.
