Hiding a Stencil Master

[Stewart Mac]

Hi,

I'm working on an application where I want to hide some of the stencil masters from the users. I've tried setting the master.hidden property, but I constantly get the "Requested operation is currently disabled" message.

The environment is VS.Net 2003, C# code using the Visio 2003 Interop.

To try to fix this I've:

1. Moved the assignments inside the Visio Idle event loop .
2. Ensured the Visio activeX control has focus.

But neither of these help, either together or in isolation.

This is driving me crazy! Any help appreciated.

cheers
Stewart

I've come up with a workable solution, but I'd still like to know how to get the master.hide working.

I've moved the offending masters to the template's document stencil.
