Question

How to create a menu dynamically?

In detail I want to:

• Create a new ribbon page (tab, I think it’s called ribbon page)
• Next create a title for the page
• Next add 2 ribbon groups and add titles to them
• Next add 3 bar button items to the first ribbon group

How to accomplish this?

Answer 1

 Dim menu As New RibbonControl


    Dim aPage As New RibbonPage("Nicks Page")

    'groups
    Dim aGroup1 As New RibbonPageGroup("1st Group")


    'ADD BUTTONS TO RIBBON GROUP HERE
    Dim i As New DevExpress.XtraBars.BarButtonItem()

    i.Caption = "Nicks Button"

    aGroup1.ItemLinks.Add(i)




    Dim i2 As New DevExpress.XtraBars.BarButtonItem()
    i2.Caption = "Nicks Other Button"

    aGroup1.ItemLinks.Add(i2)




    aPage.Groups.Add(aGroup1)

    menu.Pages.Add(aPage)

    Me.Controls.Add(menu)
