Control Synchronization of the Quick Access Bar

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I'm just creating my first Ribbon bar using CJ. 

The Ribbon itself is looking great and I'm using Galleries, Combo boxes etc.
My problem is the Quick Access bar, and Customized toolbars. 

First, when you add a control to the Quick Access bar by right-clicking on an existing control in the Ribbon, it works fine for most controls. But some, like Combo boxes, it adds the control, but there is no relation to the existing control in the Ribbon. Changing to a new item in the Combo list will make the two instances of the control have different selections? It seems that they are not synchronized?

When making Custom toolbars you have a similar problem. When you select a control button opening a gallery nothing is happening when you press the control in the Custom toolbar?
I was expecting the Control Bar to handle the synchronization, do I need to make some extra code?

	Hello look for CreateOriginalControls() or SetOriginalControls(). But I don't know if this solves your problem... Michael

	But shouldn't CJ CommandBar design take care of thats situation? It seems strange that you can attach controls to the Quick Access Toolbar, and then the default handlers are not called, and that they are not synchronized between clones of the controls? I really hope this is fixed in v15, otherwise I have to find a way to disable or remove the Quick Access Toolbar. -cpede
