Ribbon tab width matching context tab text

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

   Hi, I'd like my ribbon tabs to have their width expanded to match the text of their context tab when necessary. Here's how Microsoft Word does it:

Here's how the Codejock ribbon handles it:

i.e. it truncates the context tab's text and add ellipsis. Is there an easy way to have the ribbon tab's width increase to allow the whole of the context tab's text to be displayed? I've padded the ribbon tab's text with spaces and that works for now:

But this will break as soon as we translate to another language.

Any ideas?
