Ribbon Group selection persistence

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

   Hi there, hoping someone here can help me out with an issue I'm having with RibbonGroups and Custom Controls.
Here's some code:

	RibbonGroup rg = tab.Groups.AddGroup("Links", GROUP_ID);
	foreach (PictureBox picBox in picBoxArray)
	{
		CommandBarControlCustom cc = rg.Add(XTPControlType.xtpControlCustom, ITEM_ID, String.Empty);
		cc.Handle = p.Handle.ToInt32();
	}

That's a cut down version of the code I'm using to add a set of pictures to a group on a CommandBar. Each PictureBox has a Click event which opens up a new form to display a website.

Everything gets added, appears and works fine when my main window is large enough for all the pictures to be displayed. However, if I shrink my main window to the point where all the pictures disappear and my group automatically turns into a popup group then things start playing up. If I now click on my 'Links' group and click on a PictureBox, the website opens as intended but, 
1) the popup group remains on screen until I click away from it, and
2) the 'Links' group remains darkened as if selected and is now unresponsive to mouse clicks.

If I make my main window larger again, then the pictures reappear and I can click on them as before, make it smaller again and I get my 'selected' Links group back.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
