XamRibbon

I am using the xamRibbon in a wpf application version 2013.1. I dynamically great my tabs and show the relevant menu items on each tab when selected this works as expected. The problem I have is when the tab is selected the content does not change accordingly. I need to know if my assumption is correct that this is where this needs to go. see example below:

    <igRibbon:RibbonWindowContentHost>
        <igRibbon:RibbonWindowContentHost.Ribbon>
            <igRibbon:XamRibbon x:Name="xamRibbon" Theme="Metro" ApplicationMenuMode="Office2010" prism:RegionManager.RegionName="RibbonTabRegion">
                <igRibbon:XamRibbon.Resources>
                    <SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static igRibbon:RibbonBrushKeys.RibbonTabControlHeaderPanelBackgroundKey}"
                                 Color="AliceBlue"/>
                </igRibbon:XamRibbon.Resources>
                <igRibbon:XamRibbon.ApplicationMenu2010>
                    <igRibbon:ApplicationMenu2010 />
                </igRibbon:XamRibbon.ApplicationMenu2010>
                <igRibbon:XamRibbon.QuickAccessToolbar>
                    <igRibbon:QuickAccessToolbar Visibility="Hidden" />
                </igRibbon:XamRibbon.QuickAccessToolbar>
            </igRibbon:XamRibbon>

        </igRibbon:RibbonWindowContentHost.Ribbon>
        <igRibbon:RibbonWindowContentHost.Content>
            <DockPanel LastChildFill="True">
                <ContentControl Margin="1,3,3,3" prism:RegionManager.RegionName="ContentRegion"/>
            </DockPanel>
        </igRibbon:RibbonWindowContentHost.Content>
    </igRibbon:RibbonWindowContentHost>

Hi, I managed to get this working by adding the following to the shell and shellviewmodel, thought I would post it in case anyone else needs it.

-- ViewModel

private IRegionManager _regionManager;

private IRegion contentRegion;

public RelayCommand NavigateCommand { get; set; }

public ShellViewModel(IRegionManager regionManager, IEventAggregator eventAggregator)

        {            _regionManager = regionManager;

            NavigateCommand = new RelayCommand(param => Navigate(param));

Commands.NavigateCommand.RegisterCommand(NavigateCommand);

        }

private void Navigate(object param)

        {
String navigationPath = param as String;

if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(navigationPath))

return;

if (!String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(navigationPath))

           {               _regionManager.RequestNavigate(

RegionNames.ContentRegion, navigationPath);

            }

        }

-- View code behind

private void xamRibbon_RibbonTabItemSelected(object sender, Infragistics.Windows.Ribbon.Events.RibbonTabItemSelectedEventArgs e)

        {

     var item = e.NewSelectedRibbonTabItem as IRibbonTabItem;

           if (item != null)

            {

           Commands.NavigateCommand.Execute(item.DefaultNavigationPath);

            }

        }

Hello Anne,

Thank you for your post. I have been looking into your concerns and it seems that you are using Prism regions. According to the code that you have provided with I can see that you use XamRibbonWindow. Would you please give me some more details about the changing of the content ?

It would be great, you can attach a sample application with your scenario.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
