Description

The TabElements property returns collection of common control elements of the ribbon.

Comments

Common controls are shown at the right on the same level as the ribbon tab names. The common elements do not belong to any tab.

The following controls can be added to the collection of common controls:

• Buttons

• Combo-boxes

• Buttons for calling the combo box

• Text editors

• Color selection buttons

• Integer editors.

Example

Executing the example requires a form, a button with the Button1 name located on it and the Ribbon component with the Ribbon1 name.

Sub Button1OnClick(Sender: Object; Args: IMouseEventArgs);
Var
    TabElements: IRibbonElementsCollection;
    Btn: IRibbonButton;
    Edit: IRibbonEdit;
Begin
    TabElements := Ribbon1.TabElements;
    Btn := New RibbonButton.Create;
    Edit := New RibbonEdit.Create;
    //Add elements to the collection
    TabElements.Add(Btn);
    TabElements.Add(Edit);
    //Change desired properties
    Btn.Text := "New";
End Sub Button1OnClick;

On clicking the button two elements are added to the collection of common ribbon controls.
