xamRibbon KeyTip position

Michael Lowder posted over 2 years ago

We are using the XamRibbonWindow and are using the Office2013 theme.

The keytip location for the ribbon tabs is set to be right on top of the captions of the tabs. I was able to successfully move the keytip to below the caption by re-templating/modifying the Infragistics style for the RibbonTabItem.

The issue is that the the keytip for the File tab didn't move. It is still located right on top of the caption. I get that the File tab is not considered a ribbon tab item and has it's own style. But no matter what I try I can't seem to move the keytip as shown in the picture.

Is there any way of moving the file tab keytip down like the other ribbon tab items.

Hello Michael,

Thank you for contacting Infragistics. The ApplicationMenu2010FileTab object is what you most likely need to re-template where presumably the "F" is coming from. I am guessing you've already re-templated the RibbonOffice2013.xaml file, which is where the ApplicationMenu2010FileTab is located. But I don't see how you would change this. I am curious how you are changing the position for the others. We don't make it easily accessible to change.

Hi Michael,

I used the Infragistics style for the RibbonTabItem to move the keytips.

<Style TargetType="{x:Type igRibbon:RibbonTabItem}">

In the ContentPresenter of this style I changed the IgRibbon:XamRibbon.KeyTipPlacementType property from "Caption" to "DropDownButton". When I did that the keytip moved down.

Honestly I was just trying things out to see what would happen and it worked.

            <ContentPresenter
                           x:Name="tabItemText"
                           Width="Auto"
                           HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
                           Margin="6,4,6,3"
                           VerticalAlignment="Center"
                           Content="{TemplateBinding Header, Converter={StaticResource stringWithoutMnemonicsConverter}}"
                           ContentTemplate="{TemplateBinding HeaderTemplate}"
                           ContentTemplateSelector="{TemplateBinding HeaderTemplateSelector}"
                           igRibbon:XamRibbon.KeyTipPlacementType="DropDownButton"
                           igWindows:ClippedTextToolTipService.AncestorTypeForToolTip="{x:Type igRibbon:RibbonTabItem}"
                           igWindows:ClippedTextToolTipService.ShowToolTipWhenClipped="True"
                           igWindows:ClippedTextToolTipService.ToolTipStyleKey="{x:Static igRibbon:XamRibbon.ToolTipStyleKey}"
                           TextBlock.TextAlignment="Center"
                           TextElement.Foreground="{DynamicResource {x:Static igRibbon:RibbonBrushKeys.TabNotSelectedTextFillKey}}"/>
