Make ToolWindow invisible

[ekrogh]

Hi

How do I make a ToolWindow invisible ?

So far I have found
this.Visibility = Visibility.Hidden;

That hides the ToolWindow content, but the window frame and background is still visible.

You can use the FindWindowAsync method to find your tool window, and then hide it.

WindowFrame? window = await VS.Windows.FindWindowAsync(typeof(MyToolWindow.Pane).GUID);

if (window is not null)
{
    await window.HideAsync();
}

#171 adds a HideAsync() method that you can call on the tool window class. For example,

await RunnerWindow.HideAsync();
