Change Ribbon-menu properties after ribbon-load










-1














I build a VSTO (made with the Ribbon Designer, not using Ribbon XML). Is it possible to change the properties (like label) of the Tab from Ribbon1.cs ?



I even can't change the ribbon title with :



 private void Ribbon1_Load(object sender, RibbonUIEventArgs e)

myRibbon.Label = "something";

  • It's not clear what you're asking. Do you mean the Tab label? A Ribbon does not have a Label property and it's not clear what you'd be trying to change with that. Also, the code you show us is changing a property when the Ribbon loads, but the title of the question says "after ribbon-load". Which do you mean? Please be as accurate and detailed as possible.

The way to do this dynamically is using a callback.



In your ribbon XML:



<tab id="myTabID" getLabel="myCallback">
....
</tab>


In your ribbon code:



public string myCallback(IRibbonControl control)

switch (control.Id)

case "myTabID":
return "My Label";
case "whatever else":
default:
return "n/a";




The callback will execute whenever the tab is displayed, so probably on startup. When you actually want to change what's showing, you have to invalidate it:



ribbon.Invalidate();
// or
ribbon.InvalidateControl(id);
