Using element.Hide() returns an error,

Thanks for any support

Tools can be removed from the tool bar. They can then be added back later. Unfortunately, there is no simple hide function that I can find.

I don't think the wx.Toolbar supports hiding individual items. However, the FlatMenu seems to: http://www.wxpython.org/docs/api/wx.lib.agw.flatmenu-module.html I would recommend giving that a try.

You can disable tool:

toolbar = wx.ToolBar(self, -1, style=wx.TB_HORIZONTAL | wx.NO_BORDER)
toolbar.AddSimpleTool(1, wx.Image('stock_new.png', wx.BITMAP_TYPE_PNG).ConvertToBitmap(), 'New', '')
toolbar.EnableTool(1,False)

or you can just insert tool when you want to do this
