Hey guys, this is my first post so be kind. :-) I have just installed the NetAdvantage_Ultimate_20121.exe (with samples and help) and I am using Visual Studio 2010. When I add the XamRibbon to my WPF Window the ApplicationMenu looks like the Office 2007 style. Is it possible to get the Ribbon to look like the Office 2010 style where they have changed the ApplicationMenu from the round Microsoft icon to a colored File tab in the Ribbon.
Word 2007
Word 2010 (and 2012 I think)
Hi,
Try to change the XamRibbon's Theme to Office2010Blue(or to similar Scenic theme).

Anastas
Hey Anastas, that worked. I guess I missed the obvious. So is there a difference between the Office 2010 and 2012 Application Menu? I think one of them is full screen when its open? Look at the attached image.
Hello Eric,
The release of NetAdvantage 13.1 is planned for early April. As for your subscription, I can make you a private case, where you can send me your licence key, so I can check whether you have to buy a new one or you can use your current one.
Looking forward for your reply.
Excellent, thanks for the information. Is there a release date for 13.1? Will my current 12.x license code work with 13.1?
Just so you know, the Office Backstage feature is coming to the WPF XamRibbon control in the 13.1 release.
Here you can read more about theming XamRibbon:

Hope this helps you.
Stefan,
Thanks very much for adding a new Product Idea for this issue. How long would it take to get something like this into the product? Is it possible for me to get the Ribbon to look like the 2012 ribbon? Can I use Expression Blend to alter the XAML or maybe create my own theme? Is there any documentation on creating my own Theme for the Ribbon?
Thanks,
