Key Features
MS Office Interface at your Fingertips: The RibbonView control provides a UI very similar to the one provided by the MS Office ribbon.
Automatic Resizing and Minimization: The ribbon provides built-in mechanisms that allow you to minimize and automatically resize the ribbon content. Read more about this in the Minimization and Resizing articles.
Rich Set of Ribbon Specific Controls: The ribbon control works with special components (buttons, galleries, tabs, groups, etc.). Read more about this in the Ribbon Controls section.
Backstage: The ribbon allows you to open a backstage menu where you can display information related to the content. Read more about this in the Ribbon Backstage article.
Quick Access Toolbar: The quick access toolbar is an easily accessible toolbar displayed in the header of the ribbon where you can place buttons for quick actions as print, copy, etc. Read more about this in the Quick Access Toolbar article.
Screen Tips: The ribbon allows you to display a small window that appears when the mouse cursor hovers over an icon or a ribbon element (command). The popup window will provide details that explain the command's function. Read more about this in the Screen Tips article.
