How to add a RibbonGroup to the QAT?

Karlo posted over 16 years ago

Hi,

I am trying to add a RibbonGroup as a whole to the QAT with some C# code. How do I do this? I tried:

myRibbonWindow.Ribbon.QuickAccessToolbar.Items.Add(new QatPlaceHolderTool(myribbonGroup.Id));

However, I get a run time error that: Tool being added to the QuickAccessToolbar is not registered!

Am I doing things out of order, or is there a special property on the RibbonGroup I need to set before doing this?

Also, when are you planning on releasing this Beta as an actual product release?

thanks

KZ

No problem KZ.

As for the release date of the control, you can contact the WPF Program Manager Andrew Flick at andrewf@infragistics.com for more info. Thx

Oh sure, make it that easy. Sorry to waste your time, but thanks for the quick answer. Do you know when the release of this code will be made, or is there a web page on your site that has this information?

Hi KZ -

The QatPlaceholderTool constructor you are using assumes that the item you are creating the placeholder for is a Tool. Since you are adding a RibbonGroup in this case, you must use the constructor overload that takes a second parameter of type QatPlaceholderToolType. So the line of code should look like:

myRibbonWindow.Ribbon.QuickAccessToolbar.Items.Add(new QatPlaceholderTool(myribbonGroup.Id, QatPlaceholderToolType.RibbonGroup));

Hope this helps.
