I do not want all the tabs of the ribbon to be handled in the same class, this would lead to one file with thousands of line, making it a hell to debug and upgrade.
So, I want to handle each tab of a ribbon in a diffrent class.
To do that, I use sevral UserControl with one UltraToolbarsManager each. And each ribbon containing only one tab.
Then I want at load time to be able to merge the diffent instances of UltraToolbarsManager to be merged with the main one.
I am aware that this can be done with MDI form but- as far as I know, when the mdiChildForm is not selected, its tabs disapear. It can be considered as logical but it is not what I would expect.- and I do not want to have to display some childForm when it is only its ribbon I want displayed.
I have evantually managed to do it by cascading toolbars :
child2ToolbarsManager.MdiParentManager = child1ToolbarsManager;child1ToolbarsManager.MdiParentManager = mainToolbarsManager; mainToolbarsManager.RefreshMerge();
but is there an official way ?
You can merge in a child manager without showing a child form by setting MdiMergeable to False on both the parent and child managers and setting the MdiParentManager manually. However, merging in multiple child managers is not currently supported. You can submit a feature request for this: http://devcenter.infragistics.com/Protected/RequestFeature.aspx.

No, the same information in my previous post still applies.
