Is there a Menu system for Delphi applications, similar to the “Ms Ribbon”, where I can place different icon sizes, active and passive information, and is manageable both be the developer and customizable by the user ?
I currently use the DevExpress Menu Bar.
I am considering the Ribbon menu approach, though I don’t understand the legal issues around this one.
My current application as several Icons that can be placed in the Menu.
I like to allow different ICO sizes depending on several application issues, ICOs that can change size.
Be able to place a Big Logo, like the Windows Start Button at the Top Left.
And several Active components, the show both information, Color, etc depending on the application, data and status
Also allow user to customize, what he wants to see.
What do you recommend?
You could use a ribbon. That’s pretty similar to a ribbon 🙂
DevExpress has one too, so you could add that to your existing DevExpress menus.
Marjan pointed out in a comment that TMS Software have a ribbon component as well.
I might misunderstand, since this seems too simple an answer. You say you want something similar to the MS ribbon. What do you want that’s different? Will a ribbon control do?
