Hello ProfUIS-Team,

within your sample RibbonBar the user can add items to the quick access bar by selecting them from a listbox. Generally spoken, there can appear items within this listbox that neither have a qualified name nor an icon to be displayed, e.g. groups, comboboxes ...
Wouldn’t it be better to substitute this lag by an optional string (e.g. the title string of a given tooltip attached to this nameless item) to get a clearer assignment within the list? The automatic insertion of a default icon into the quick access bar would be an option for iconless items, too.

Kind regards,

Martin

We think it’s not a good idea to get some non-empty text assigned to a command in this case. The text may be too long for displaying in the quick access toolbar. But may be a better idea is to implement one more text property for each command which should describe a short action text and can be used for quick access toolbar and other places when explicit text properties are not specified completely. Even this solution is a guess only. On the other hand, it’s easier to pay attention to the complete initialization of all the text properties which are currently supported by commands.
