Merging Ultratoolbarsmanager ribbon tab
posted

How can I manipulate the Ultratoolbarsmanager's ribbon tab?

here what I want to do..

I have a Ultratoolbarmanager in a mdiparent and mdichild window.

I want the several buttons in the ribbon tab body to be visible when opengradebook child window opens and make them invisible again when the opengradebook window closes.

The ribbon tabs in the mdichild and mdiparent have the same key name of Home and a caption of Gradebook.

But when I open the opengradebook form. another ribbon tab named Home appends in the tab list.

    Were you able to make this work when the Office2007Compatibility is FALSE? I can't seem to make it work. The parent ribbon tab and the mdichild form ribbon tab has the same Caption and Key.

    I believe the Office 2007 UI Guidelines state that the contents of each individual ribbon tab cannot change based on the state of an application. Merging cannot occur when a child Form is opened for this reason. But if you would like to work around this restriction, you can set Office2007UICompatibility to False and the merging you expect will occur.
