Ribbon bug? ControlContainer tool can't be edited in dropped down RibbonTab

javiguti — Thu, 06 May 2010 18:34:29 GMT

Hi,

I am using v9.2. This behaviour can be easily recreated on a new solution by creating a usercontrol (with only a textbox in it is fine). Then drag one instance of the user control on a new form. Add also a toolbarsmanager, enable the ribbon, add a tab and a group, and add a control container for the user control.

Run the solution. You can type data in the textbox. Minimize the Ribbon (double click on tab item). Now click once ONCE on the tab item (tad drops down). Try to type data in. Does not work. Click on the textbox to highlight text and try to type data in. Does not work either.

This seems to only happen with ControlContainers. Is there any property I can use to avoid this behaviour?

Thanks

Javier

ControlContainerTool in the ApplicationMenu ToolAreaRight

Hi, I am trying to put a ControlContainerTool in the ApplicationMenu ToolAreaRight of my app with this code: ControlContainerTool ListTool = new ControlContainerTool("ListTool"); ListTool .Control = listControl; AppToolbar.Tools.Add( ListTool ); AppToolbar.Ribbon.ApplicationMenu.ToolAreaRight.Tools.AddTool( "ListTool" ); AppToolbar.Ribbon.ApplicationMenu.ToolAreaRight.Settings.ShowIconArea = Infragistics.Win.DefaultableBoolean.True; There are several controls on the listControl that I add to the the tool that I shold be seeing, however when I run this code all I see is this: Is this because ControlContainersTools are not allowed in the App Menu? or am I doing something wrong. I have added plenty of ControlContainers to regular tabs, and they all work great, but I don't know much about the app menu so am I not setting it up correctly or something?
