If I add controls (CXTPControlButton, CXTPControlEdit, etc.) to a group in a tab in my ribbon bar, I see that the width of each control depends on the control's content. For example, if I add three buttons with captions "A", "B", and "This Is A Long Caption", then the width of the group (or at least that column in the group) is determined by the third button--but the first two buttons don't stretch to fill in the space, and are left-justified within the column.

Most controls seem to exhibit the same behavior, but I see that for some reason CXTPControlEdit has a SetWidth() member. Is there any way to set the width of other controls, or to specify a minimum width for all controls in a group? Is it possible to center controls in their column of the group?

Is there any layout capability (like Qt has, if you know Trolltech's product)?

Hello,

You can call SetWidth for normal button also.
