Add a Ribbon Group to a Ribbon Tab

You can use Ribbon Tabs to organize and present a high-level overview of application tasks to the end user. Within each tab, you can use a Ribbon Group to categorize tools into subsets of functionally related tasks.

The following example code demonstrates how to add two Ribbon Groups to a Ribbon Tab.

In XAML:

...
<igRibbon:XamRibbon Name="xamRibbon1">
        <igRibbon:XamRibbon.Tabs>
                <igRibbon:RibbonTabItem Header="Home">
                        <igRibbon:RibbonGroup
                                Caption="Data"
                                Id="grpData">
                        <!--TODO:Add Tools here-->
                        </igRibbon:RibbonGroup>
                        <igRibbon:RibbonGroup
                                Caption="Styles"
                                Id="grpStyles">
                        <!--TODO:Add Tools here-->
                        </igRibbon:RibbonGroup>
                </igRibbon:RibbonTabItem>
        </igRibbon:XamRibbon.Tabs>
</igRibbon:XamRibbon>
...

In Visual Basic:

Imports Infragistics.Windows.Ribbon
...
Dim group As RibbonGroup
Dim tab As New RibbonTabItem()
tab.Header = "Home"
Me.xamRibbon1.Tabs.Add(tab)
group = New RibbonGroup()
group.Caption = "Data"
group.Id = "grpData"
tab.RibbonGroups.Add(group)
group = New RibbonGroup()
group.Caption = "Styles"
group.Id = "grpStyles"
tab.RibbonGroups.Add(group)
...

In C#:

using Infragistics.Windows.Ribbon;
...
RibbonGroup group;
RibbonTabItem tab = new RibbonTabItem();
tab.Header = "Home";
this.xamRibbon1.Tabs.Add(tab);
group = new RibbonGroup();
group.Caption = "Data";
group.Id = "grpData";
tab.RibbonGroups.Add(group);
group = new RibbonGroup();
group.Caption = "Styles";
group.Id = "grpStyles";
tab.RibbonGroups.Add(group);
