Hello,

I create Tabs and Groups via Code.

Sample (2 Tabs with 4 Groups)

To change the Text of Tabs or add Groups are no problem (CurrentTabPage).

But, how can i change a Group Text without to now what is the Current Group or the selected Group. Or. add Controls to the selected / Current Group.

Sorry for my bad english.

Best regards
Gunter

It is not completely clear what you mean by the Current Group but, if you want to populate the ribbon programmatically, you could use the following code

Dim tabPage As RibbonTabPage = New RibbonTabPage()
tabPage.Text = "Page 1"

Dim ribbonGroup As RibbonGroup = New RibbonGroup()
ribbonGroup.Text = "Ribbon Group 1.1"

tabPage.Controls.Add(ribbonGroup)

ribbonGroup = New RibbonGroup()
ribbonGroup.Text = "Ribbon Group 1.2"

tabPage.Controls.Add(ribbonGroup)

ribbon1.TabPages.Add(tabPage)

tabPage = New RibbonTabPage()
tabPage.Text = "Page 2"

ribbonGroup = New RibbonGroup()
ribbonGroup.Text = "Ribbon Group 2.1"

tabPage.Controls.Add(ribbonGroup)

ribbonGroup = New RibbonGroup()
ribbonGroup.Text = "Ribbon Group 2.2"

tabPage.Controls.Add(ribbonGroup)

ribbon1.TabPages.Add(tabPage)

Here is the code

    Dim currentTabPage As RibbonTabPage = ribbon1.CurrentTabPage

       If Not currentTabPage Is Nothing Then
              For Each ribbonGroup As RibbonGroup In currentTabPage.Controls
                     ’...
              Next ribbonGroup
       End If

If it is not what you are looking for, please let us know.

Have you a little code sample ?

Actually there is no such thing as "current group” in the ribbon. If you need to enumerate ribbon groups within a tab page, you can use the RibbonTabPage.Controls collection.

Hello,

i get the Current Tab with "ribbon1.CurrentTabPage"

how can i get the Current Group?

Thanks

Thanks!

Great support.

You can use the following code for that

Dim ribbonGroup As RibbonGroup = New RibbonGroup()
Dim currentTabPage As RibbonTabPage = ribbon1.CurrentTabPage
If Not currentTabPage Is Nothing Then
      currentTabPage.Controls.Add(ribbonGroup)
End If
