Is it possible to put other content within the Button Tools of the Ribbon control (not just assigning an image or a caption to the respective properties)?
I found this post which basically asks the same question but has no answer: http://forums.infragistics.com/forums/p/40787/228141.aspx#228141
Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
Yep, Alex, I thought that would be the case.
Andrew, I tried retemplating the RibbonButtonToolTemplate but the XamRibbon didn't pick it up. I'm guessing I would have to specify styles for every tool type and set their templates to my custom template for it to work.
It's not really essential to be able to have other content in them. It just means I have to create images of everything instead.
Thanks for the responses.
Currently the default template for the tools are setup to show the Caption and the associated small/large image based on the size. If you want to have it show the content you would need to retemplate the element. You can use the default xaml we include in the DefaultStyles directory as a starting point for your custom template.
Hello,
XamRibbon is designed against the Microsoft Office UI Design Guidelines for ribbon control and I believe this is not allowed.
