What language are you developing in? 10.1 comes with a RibbonBar sample in VB6 (which is apparently Codejock's language of choice for us non-MFC people...  )

okay let me try to explain what I am looking for: 1/ I am using VB6 2/ using the sample above, if I click tab "Page Layout", I want to get a message telling me that I clicked "Page Layout", samething for each tab above. 3/ how can I have the small icon "Save" and the rest of icons right by the ribbontab? (just icons and no caption) 4/ How can I have a large icon "New PivotTable" and the rest of large icon inside of ribbongroup? Note: I want to use the standard imagelist control. Thank you, |

Can't help you there, I refuse to use languages that are not truely object-oriented.
Can't find this anywhere either. Others are looking for it as well - so we'll probably see it next release. An aside: I find the event model of CommandBars extremely obtuse. All events being filtered through the CommandBar control makes code confusing, but maybe I just haven't found the proper way to deal with this yet...
I was able to add a simple button to the command bar (i.e. the 16x16 disc used for 'save' feature) but it appeared in the same visual space as the 'file' menu item, not with the other tabs like you are wishing to do. Maybe we'll see that ability down the road.
Haven't tried this yet... maybe soon. Cheers ~ jp ------------- I like mathematics because it is not human and has nothing particular to do with this planet or with the whole accidental universe — because, like Spinoza's God, it won't love us in return. |
