Remarks

Typically, you create a ribbon category indirectly by calling CMFCRibbonBar::AddCategory, which returns a pointer to the newly created ribbon category. You add panels to the category by calling CMFCRibbonCategory::AddPanel.

The CMFCRibbonTab class draws ribbon categories. It is derived from CMFCRibbonBaseElement Class.

This following example demonstrates how to create a ribbon category and add a panel to it.

// Create a new ribbon category and get a pointer to it

CMFCRibbonCategory* pCategory = m_wndRibbonBar.AddCategory

(_T("&Write"), // Category name

IDB_WRITE, // Category small images (16 x 16)

IDB_WRITE_LARGE); // Category large images (32 x 32)

// Add a panel to the new category

CMFCRibbonPanel* pPanel = pCategory->AddPanel (

_T("Clipboard"), // Panel name

m_PanelIcons.ExtractIcon (0)); // Panel icon

The following diagram shows a figure of the Home category from the RibbonApp sample application.

void AddHidden(CMFCRibbonBaseElement* pElem);

Parameters

[in] pElem
Pointer to a ribbon element.

Remarks

Ribbon elements on the customization dialog box are the commands that you can add to the quick access toolbar.

CMFCRibbonCategory::AddPanel

Creates a ribbon panel for the ribbon category.

CMFCRibbonPanel* AddPanel(
    LPCTSTR lpszPanelName,  
    HICON hIcon = 0,  
    CRuntimeClass* pRTI = NULL);

Parameters

[in] lpszPanelName

Remarks

CMFCRibbonCategory::SetCollapseOrder

Defines the order in which the ribbon panels of the ribbon category collapse.

void SetCollapseOrder(const CArray<int,int>& arCollapseOrder);

Parameters

[in] arCollapseOrder
Specifies the collapse order. The array contains zero-based indexes of ribbon panels.

Remarks

The library defines the collapse order. However, you can customize this behavior by providing the category with the list of indexes that specifies the collapse order.

When the category detects that it has to collapse a ribbon panel, it looks for the next element in the specified list. If the list is empty, or you have not specified enough elements, then the category uses the internal algorithm.

For example, the category has three ribbon panels and can be collapsed several times until all panels are in the fully collapsed state. You can set the following collapse order: 0, 0, 2, 2. In this case, the category will collapse the panel 0 two times, the panel 2 two times. The panel that has the index of 1 remains uncollapsed.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to use the SetCollapseOrder method in the CMFCRibbonCategory class. The example shows how to construct an array for the collapse order, and how to set the collapse order to the ribbon category.

    CArray<int,int> arCollapseOrder;
    arCollapseOrder.Add(0);
    arCollapseOrder.Add(1);
    arCollapseOrder.Add(2);
