How to remove "edit bar" of a component using code

[deepak3344]

I had a requirement in which I needed to hide "edit bar" in authoring mode based on some condition .

I am using this code snippet "componentContext.setDecorate(Boolean.FALSE)"  .

Issue caused is sometimes it is removing "edit bar" always in authoring mode apart from that condition also . Anyone faced this situation before and what may be other best practices to handle show/hide of editbar on basis of some condition .

HI 

Please refer to the article :-

Link:- http://labs.6dglobal.com/blog/2014-01-08/the-great-and-powerful-cq-editconfig/

Here you can use 

"cq:EditConfig" allows you for configuring many important features of the component's editing experience including:

• Dialog display behavior
• Edit bar or hover appearance
• Editor items
• Listeners
• Advanced features such as:
  • Drop targets
  • Additional actions
  • InPlace editing

Changing cq:layout  to rollover from editbar, your work would be done.

Write an OSGi service, and call it to toggle JCR node's value.

or Reading JCR nodes, please have a look at any of these options:-

I hope this would help you.
