I am developing a dictator app in 2007.
What is the best approach to structure the RibbonX? For development, I need an easy and quick way to switch between 2 states: 1 – Only my custom tabs are visible. 2 – My custom tabs and all Mso tabs are visible. I can think of three options, but I am not happy with either one. Option 1: Work with two versions of xml – one for development and one for production. It does not satisfy the “quick and easy” requirement. Also, I will often need to switch to a full native ribbon even on production version. Option 2: With startFromScratch = False, have a toggle custom button (protected with password) to set getVisible of Mso tabs to True or False. This is really quick and easy, but it leaves behind (on my machine), an annoying Adobe Acrobat tab. I saw some posts that nobody had figured out yet how to hide Adobe add-in, let alone other add-ins which may exist on other machines. Option 3: With startFromScratch = True, now I will have to rebuild all the tabs and groups one-by-one, and then apply same technique as in option 2 to show / hide the rebuilt Office tabs. This technique will kill Adobe and any other add-in, but I am concern that this is an overkill. I hope that the RibbonX gurus can come up with a fourth and much better option. If option 3 wins, has anybody posted an xml which rebuilds the whole Ribbon? |
