Adding Ribbon Items

In This Topic

When you add the C1Ribbon control to the Windows Form, the Ribbon appears at the top of the form with a tab and a group within the tab. To build on the Ribbon, you must add items. The following topics demonstrate how to add items to the Quick Access Toolbar, add items to the configuration toolbar, add a tab to the Ribbon, add a group to the tab, and add items to the group.

Tip: Ultimately, you will have to write event handling code that performs a specific action on the form's content whenever a button is clicked or a selection is made from a combo box or drop-down menu. Therefore, it is a good idea to assign meaningful names to Ribbon controls as you create them, making your code easier to understand and maintain.
