Hi,
I have a situation, where I want to group several controls together in the commandbar/ribbonbar. In this case, it's a combobox and several buttons. It is important, that these controls retail the fixed layout (in respect to each other) all the times. In other words, they should act like a single control. Yet they should retain all the functionality of a distinct controls. I tried to embed a commandbar to CXTPControlCustom, but I was not successful. Can you give me some hints how to achieve this? Thanks, Pavol. |

Hi,
You can call
pGroup->SetControlsGrouping(); and controls will acts like Paragraph/Font group of RibbonSample.

Nice, this is almost what I need.
But I need to enable it only for several controls from the ribbon group. Something like this: ----------------------------------------------- | ########## | < X | Combo | Y > | | # Large # | < X | Combo | Y > | .. some other controls | # Button # | < X | Combo | Y > | | ########## | | ------------------------------------------------- So I have here a ribbon group, that has one large button, then a group of 3 *composites* (button-combo-button) and other controls group. I'd like to see *composites* grouped just like SetControlsGrouping(), but the rest to be grouped in the normal way. Would this be possible to get? Best regards, Pavol. |

BTW: I spotted, that excel 2007 can arrange the buttons in the way I have described. It would be nice to have it supported in ToolkitPro.

Hi,
You can try override CXTPRibbonGroup, its OnCalcDynamicSize and manually position buttons inside this group.
