Hi Infragistics,
I am struggling with the QAT, where I am trying to show a ButtonTool, with both image and text. Nomatter what I do, I can only see the image. How do I show a text as well?

The QAT does not allow showing text unless the tool is a LabelTool. This must be enforced according to the Office 2007 UI Guidelines.
aphelie said:But when you set the Office2007UICompatibility property to FALSE, you should be able to display the text. This is not the case and, as you cannot Add a labeltool to the QAT, there is no way to display text... Any workaround ?
Setting Office2007UICompatibility to False does not mean you are allowed to do everything that wasn't allowed when it was True. Some behavior is constant regardless of this setting. This is one of those behaviors. The point of not allowing text in the QAT (except for editor tools) is so they take up less space. Otherwise, the tools would be placed in the overflow area after 5 or 6 tools were added. After that, the user loses the time savings of adding tools to the QAT. However, if only a few tools are going to be added, it might make sense to see the text of these tools. You can submit a feature request for the ability to show text in the QAT when Office2007UICompatibility is False and some other property is set: http://devcenter.infragistics.com/Protected/RequestFeature.aspx.
