After applying the latest service release (15.2.20152.2118), all toolbar using the UltraToolbarsManager are "crammed". The padding seems to have been lost.
Hello Matt,
Yes, you are correct. With the latest service release we have fix several issues in our controls. One of the fixes was about incorrect calculation of tools' size in UltraToolbarsManager. We used to use MeasureString method of the Graphics object. However, it returns incorrect size and adds some padding to the size. Now we improved the calculation and this padding is no longer there. As a result the tools are more narrow now and the padding is smaller. More information about all the changes included in latest service release you may find in our release notes here – “Infragistics Windows Forms Release Notes – September 2016: 15.2, 16.1 Service Release”.
Regarding your issue what you can do is increase the width of the tools where you need more spacing. Note, that not all the tools will allow you to change their width, e.g. button tool’s width is read-only.
Also you may submit a new feature idea for adding possibility to set the tools padding in UltraToolbarsManager’s Ribbon at http://ideas.infragistics.com.
Thank you for contacting Infragistics.
Thanks for the quick response Milko.
So, what I think I hear is there's nothing I can do for the Toolbar Buttons. You said the solution is to widen items but then said button's width is readonly, correct?
Viusally, this is a pretty striking change. Is there a way to roll back to a previous service release using the Version Utility?
Thank you for your feedback.
Yes, you can roll back to the previous version. To do so go to Programs and Features in the Control Panel and select View Installed Updates. Find the Infragistics update you need to remove and uninstall it. This should roll back to the previous version you had on your machine.
Note, that after working on this and doing some research the idea to be able to set the padding of the tools in ribbon has been determined to be a new feature idea. You can suggest new product ideas for future versions (or vote for existing ones) at http://ideas.infragistics.com.
Please let me know if any additional questions arise.
