Hi,

Is there any way to set the width of a CXTPRibbonGroup, so that we can group the buttons within the group. At the moment they seem to be positioned top to bottom, then wrap around to the top.

Is it possible to have them wrap left to right?

Thanks

I have a similar request.

In this example I have 4 small icons. When the 4 button was added, it wrapped to column 2. I would like to make the 3rd button be the start of column 2 (so the layout will be 2x2).

hi, that's easy :-)

just use SetBeginGroup(TRUE) to start a new group at this item and

SetControlsGrouping(TRUE) to group them horizontally


...

pGroupMonate->SetControlsGrouping(TRUE);
...

pGroupMonate->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_MONAT_5);

pGroupMonate->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_MONAT_6);

pGroupMonate->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_MONAT_7)->SetBeginGroup(TRUE);
..

then you get something like:

i think that's what you're looked for..

Thanks, I did your suggestion and it almost works. The only little problem is the space between the 2 lines. It would be nice if the space was gone.

Here is the code:

CXTPRibbonGroup* pGroupViewListPane = pTabView->AddGroup("List Pane");
pGroupViewListPane->SetControlsGrouping(TRUE);
CXTPControl* pTmpControl = NULL;
pGroupViewListPane->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_VIEW_LARGEICON);
pGroupViewListPane->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_VIEW_SMALLICON);
pTmpControl = pGroupViewListPane->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_VIEW_LIST);
pTmpControl->SetBeginGroup(TRUE);
pGroupViewListPane->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_VIEW_DETAILS);
