Does anyone know if/when Infragistics will be adding an Office 2010 style to the ribbon control? I would especially like to have the same functionality as the "File" control that Office 2010 has. It's similar to the Windows 7 ribbon style, but the "File" menu opens to the size of the whole window.
I'm sure that we will add that functionality to the control at some point but currently its still not released nor have any updated ui guidelines been released so I really cannot say when we would have that available at this time.
Ok, do you know when the Windows 7 style ribbon will be available?
Hello all,
The Scenic (windows 7/Office 2010) XamRibbon theme is available in the 2010.v2 release.
Thank you. I tried it and it does look similar to the Office 2010 ribbon, but doesn't offer all the functionality that the Office 2010 ribbon should. E.g. the file menu as seen in Word 2010.
For now it will do, but I would like to know how to remove the space between the ribbon and the window chrome if possible?
I believe you are referring to the BackStage mode of the Application Menu. This is yet not supported, but you can request this as a feature here and we will try to include that as well in our toolset. Regarding the styling, we ship our default styles in the DefaultStyles directory in the Infragistics folder, so you can customize this from there or event create a custom backstrage functionality. Same is true for the space between the ribbon and window. Moreover, Have you tried it using it with a XamRibbonWindow?
Hello Alex, i want to change the font color and background image and add text in menu like 'File'. how can i do this in 'scenic' theam.
Hello,
Thank you for your post. I have been looking into it and I created a sample project for you with the functionality you want. Basically I handled the Loaded event of the ApplicationMenu and I set the Background and Caption’s Foreground in its handler. Please let me know if this helps you or you need further assistance on this matter.
Looking forward for your reply.
Hello Stefan,
Thanks for reply,
Can you please give me demo project for that. because it is not working which you suggested.
