Remove Application Ribbon from new SubArea in Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2015 - dynamics-crm

I want to remove the ribbon that automatically creates when a new SubArea is created with XrmToolBox's SiteMap Editor.
See screendump
here.
Do anyone know how to do this?

I solved the problem by using the Application Ribbon. There is some icons that you can hide/unhide at the top of the screen. I think those buttons you automatically get when you create a new SubArea is only shown in the application ribbon, and not in the entities.
Atleast they dissapeared in my solution, by just hiding those buttons in the "home" workspace inside the application ribbon.
There is also some code you can try, but i dont know where :)
Code:
Mscrm.BasicHomeTab.New.NewActivity.Hide
I think its the same code for all buttons, just different names of course.The code above is for the NewActivity button.

I believe that's out-of-box behavior and you can't do anything with it. One thing you can try - open a feature request at Connect portal.

Outlook VSTO ribbon add-in tab not showing on load

I’ve created an add-in that consist of a ribbon and three tabs.
Background to build:
The ribbon is built using designer and not xml. The primary use of these is to allow quick opening of various email templates.
Tab0 adds a couple buttons to the built in TabMail
Tab1 is a new custom tab with various buttons that do various things.
Tab2 is a reduced version of Tab1 for use by users of our subsidiary company but pointing to alternatively branded templates.
In the coding, Tab1 and Tab2’s visibility is set based on user AD group membership on ribbon load event. This has been tested and works.
Tab0 always is merged with the built in Home tab shows as expected.
Developers and template admins like me should see all tabs. This also works using same methods.
Current issue:
Recently and I think after a certain office 365 update (but not 100% which), Tab1 no longer shows for anyone that should see it on load. However the tab has loaded somewhere. The reason I know this is because to fix this bug all I have to do is minimise the ribbon the re-maximise. Both additional tabs are instantly visible.
Please note, I do not have to disable and the re-enable the actual add-in.
I can also confirm that the Ribbon Type is set correctly (Microsoft.Outlook.Explorer) so please, no reply along those lines either.
I have trawled the web and cannot seem to find an explanation or fix for this behaviour. I'm hoping someone has seen this before and might point me in the right direction.
To replicate, I've seen it happen by just creating a new simple ribbon project and creating a new custom tab. Then create a second tab by copying the first, giving it a diff ID.
e.g.
Ribbon on App Launch/Load - Tab01 Missing
Ribbon on minimise - Tab01 Appears
Ribbon on maximised- Tab01 still visible
Still have no idea why this happens but i have found a work around for those that have experiences the same issue.
The issue seems to affect the first custom tab only. So if you add a new blank custom tab and set its visibility to false, this inherits this bug allowing the other to function properly.
Its a bit of a dirty fix but work well.
Would still be interested in an actual fix if anyone knows one though.
This happens because you had added control to your ribbon perhaps a property to the Control which you should not.
An example is when you add a Ribbon Gallery control to your Ribbon and change its "PositionType" property from Default to another value.
This results in the Ribbon not showing.
Or perhaps you should check the last code you added to your project

Outlook Addin How to Make Custom Tab Show Only in New Message Compose Window

I'm sure there's a simple way to do this that I am overlooking. But, how do you make a custom tab in the Ribbon.xml show up only in the new message compose window? I want to have my own tab so that the ribbon for my groups and buttons will be clean.
I am currently doing a workaround to invalidate the tab control when a new mail item event happens, but there must be a simpler way to do this.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
It's Outlook 2016 desktop in Windows 10.
Thank you.
Your ribbon XML must specify only Microsoft.Outlook.Mail.Compose - see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/vsto/customizing-a-ribbon-for-outlook?view=vs-2019

Unable to Hide See All Records button from Sub Grid in UCI

I am not able to hide 'See All Records' button from UCI, the button is not available in Ribbon Workbench. Please refer below screenshot for better understanding - Is there any other alternative?
Currently I am working on MS Dynamics CRM online version 9.1. I have searched on internet but couldn't find something related to 'See all records' button on sub-grid. I have checked the forms for any setting while adding sub-grid, but no luck.
If you have associated entity in the navigation then this icon will show up. Remove from form editor to remove this.

“Open Associated view” may be the right keyword to search.
Update:
I verified this in my environments (9.1.0.2251) - these options are not there.
But in our preview org (9.1.0.3010) - I can see it. No way to hide it.
Without associated entity in navigation:
With associated entity in navigataion:
Here My solution after I expensed a lot of time ..
Use Ribbon workbench , then select Home and look for NavigatetoHomepageGrid , button doesn't have an icon.
Hope It helps.

Why can't I add a webresource to form in Dynamics CRM?

I am working with an on-premise instance of Dynamics CRM 2015. I have added web resources by creating them through the "Customize the System" window as well as by uploading them.
When I go to a form or dashboard to add these, it never works. I click Web Resource, find the web resource, fill out the form and submit and it just goes back to the Form edit screen and nothing happens!
No error is being shown or anything and it is driving me nuts! What am I doing wrong?
What browser do you use? Try to use IE because FF and Chrome have issues exactly with customization of forms.
I agree on using Internet Explorer. Or use debug tools marking the update always from server box, as it is a cache problem.

Custom button on CRM Mail merge window

I want to put custom button on CRM Mail merge window and on click of that button , i want to store that document in sharepoint site document library.
please check below screen
Is it possible to put custom button?
This is not possible in supported way.
like Andrii said this is not a supported method and i would try and stay clear of this solution if you can. I would suggest thinking about implementing your code for sharepoint into ribbon button inside of Microsoft Word.
