Button and Menu Item Visibility
AppBar
brings some extended features, including the ability to show or hide a button or menu item using its Visibility
property. This is not easily achievable with the built-in ApplicationBar
class, because to hide an item in the application bar requires the item’s removal from the ApplicationBar
. AppBar
takes care of this automatically by repopulating the application bar when the visibility of an item changes.
