Subject: [SOLVED] Custom Area in Ribbon System Menu?
Date Posted: 10 September 2010 at 12:53am
Hello Everyone!
 
I need some help here. I'm using the Ribbon interface in my application, and I also use the system menu commonly referred to as the "Start Menu". The sample shows it as a recent file list, but I was wondering if we could use it as a custom control area, similar to the way we attach a picturebox.hwnd as a control's handle in other samples.
 
To help explain what I'm trying to get at, I've attached a screenshot below:
 
 
 
And folks, if there might be a way to pull this off, please let me know something. This issue has put my entire project on hold. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Something like that

Set Control = CommandBars.CreateCommandBarControl("CXTPControlCustom")
        Control.Caption = "Recent Documents"
        Control.BeginGroup = True
        Control.Id = 0
        Control.Flags = xtpFlagWrapRow
        Control.Handle = Command1.hWnd
        .AddControl Control

Hey Oleg!
 
Thanks for that code sample, it does exactly what I'm looking for!
 
Now that that is solved, is there anyway you or anyone else could help me with some of my latter posts? About ribbon groups and the ribbon tabs?
I'd really appreciate it!
