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 required properties
    Btn.Text := "New";
End Sub Button1OnClick;

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