I am using RibbonCustomizationProvider to display built-in dialog to customize ribbon. I set StockModificationOptions property to not allow to Edit Tab and Group. When dialog comes up, edit tool is not visible for exisitng Tabs and Groups, which is correct. But when I add a new Tab/group, edit tool is visible for the newly cretaed custom Tag and Group.
Hi rossan01,
Custom Tabs/Groups have nothing to do with StockItemModificationOptions property. You can always add/modify/remove custom Tabs/Groups. For instance, if all the StockItemModificationOptions items are checked except AllowTabModify and AllowGroupModify, the added Custom tabs/groups will still be able to be modified since the StockItemModificationOptions property indicates how default, not custom, tabs/groups and tools can be modified.
You can take a look at the following help topic, called “Using the Ribbon Customization Dialog” http://help.infragistics.com/NetAdvantage/WinForms/2013.1/CLR4.0/.
Please let me know if you need any further assistance or if I have not understand you correctly.

Hello rossan01,
After further research, I have found a way to disable the adding of custom tabs.
This could be achieved by using the BeforeCustomizationDialogDisplayed event handler of the utraRibbonCustomizationProvider control. I have added a method, called REmoveAddingCustomTabsInRibbonCustomizationDialog, that goes through the UI elements of the Ribbon Customization Dialog and is looking for the button with button Name “btnAddTab” (its title is “+ New Tab”), the context menu item with key “NewTab” (its title is “Add New Tab”) and the tree item with text “Create a New Group”. Once these UI elements are found, the button is removed, the context menu item gets invisible and the tree item is removed.
Please take a look at the attached sample and let me know if you need any assistance.
Thanks for the reply. It all makes sence now.
I am just wondering if threre is a way to not allow the user to add custom tabs.
