Hiding/unhiding a control disturbs the user’s experience. You should enable/disable instead. Beyond that, you haven’t said what should trigger the hidden/visible state.

Create a public static reference to MainWindow (in its constructor) and add public getters for the controls in question that you can reference in the user control.

You can make the control accessible by adding this attribute to the buttons in your toolbar in your xaml:

XAML

x:FieldModifier="public"
