I want to create a "PopupRibbonGroup" that looks and acts like the "Chart Title" in the picture below.
I read in the help document about
Public ReadOnly Property UnderlyingGroup As RibbonGroup
"Returns the underlying RibbonGroup that this group is associated with. This is primarily used for a RibbonGroup that is owned by a PopupRibbonGroup in order to point back to the RibbonGroup sited on the RibbonTab."
How do I create this PopupRibbonGroup? I can't find anything about it in the documentation.

Hi Mike, I want to use the PopupRibbonGroupTool at design time. I want to show the contents of the group, just like it is done at run time when there is no space to show the tools. I want it on the Ribbon itself not on QAT. Is it possible? If yes, can you please let me know how? Thanks, Ajay
Thank you! Now it works as I want to!
The PopupRibbonGroupTool is not the right tool to use for this. That tool is only used when a ribbon group is added to the quick access toolbar. It is a drop down tool which shows the contents of the associated ribbon group. You would instead want to use a PopupMenuTool. Add an instance of one to the RibbonGroup. Add two ButtonTools to the new PopupMenuTool. Set the ButtonTools' SharedProps.Caption to "None" and "Above Chart", respectively. Then set their SharedProps.DescriptionOnMenu to the text you want to appear under the title for each tool.
