I’m working on a PowerPoint Add-In project.

I’m trying to create a RibbonToggleButton in code-behind but I can’t do it the way I thought,

RibbonToggleButton toggleButton = new RibbonToggleButton();

Is it possible to create RibbonControls in code-behind and not the RibbonDesigner or RibbonXML?

According to the docs:

You can create a RibbonToggleButton at
run time by using the
CreateRibbonToggleButton method of the
RibbonFactory object.

It looks like you get at the RibbonFactory via the RibbonBase.Factory property.
