how to find all instances of a ButtonTool
posted

Hi,

I have a ButtonTool defined in my ToolbarsManager.Tools collection.  This button can appear in multiple places on my Ribbon Tabs, or in popup menus - the user is allowed to set where the tool will be displayed.

I need to be able to find all the Instances of this tool so that I can replace it with some other tools.  It is really just a placeholder. 

Is there a built-in way of finding all instances of a tool?  Or do i just need to cycle through the ribbons and stuff myself?

Thanks,

~Karen

    Hello Karen,

    I think that the following code sample might be helpful to you:

    

    ultraToolbarsManager1.Ribbon.Tabs[0].Groups[0].Tools[0].SharedProps.ToolInstances;

    The above code will return a collection of the tool's instances.

    Please feel free to let me know if I misunderstood you or if you need any additional assistance.
