title: How do I remove or disable WPF Window Report Designer Properties
body: <p>Good morning Devs;</p>
  
  <p>I have a Syncfusion Report Designer on a WPF Window. The Syncfusion Report Designer is similar to the SSRS and Windows Forms Report Designers.</p>
  
  <p>I am creating a template designer application and want to give the user limited functionality when it comes to the actual report and the body parts of the report, related to their properties.</p>
  
  <p>When you have the properties window open and click on the report part of the report, the report properties are displayed, as per image 1.</p>

  <p>When you click on the body of the report, the body properties are displayed as per image 2.</p>

  <p>When you click on any of the images in the report, in this case only one image, the selected image properties are displayed as per image 3.</p>

  <p>All good.</p>
  
  <p>But wanting to limit the user on the body and the report properties, is there any way I can "clear" the properties window when the user selects either the body or the report? I know I can hide (close) the properties window when they select either the body or the report, but the user has the functionality to click a button and open the properties window, and hide/show will have too much of an inconsistency in the user experience. Somehow I need to hook into the properties window and "clear" or "lock" the properties. How do I do that?</p>
