Merging two tabs with the same name
posted

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to merge two tabs into one. My Main form has a "Tools" tab with two groups. My child form also has a "Tools" tab with one group. When I open the child form and the toolbars are merged, I get two "Tools" tabs. Is there a way to make the UltraToolbarsManager merge them into one tab with the three groups?

Sincerely,
Lars

    Lars,

    The Ribbon doesn't do this when merging; by default the component prepends the keys of child RibbonTabs with extra text to let one know that it is a merged tab, and therefore will show the 2 tabs.  In order to accomplish this, you will need to remove the RibbonGroups from the child tab and add them to the parent tab, then hide the child tab.  If you would like to submit a feature request for this functionality, you can do so here.
