Create a Ribbon Panel
Ribbon panels can be created from scratch or from an existing toolbar or
dashboard panel. Create ribbon panels from scratch under the Ribbon Panels
node on the Customizations In <file name> pane of the Customize tab. This
gives you control over which commands are displayed on the ribbon panel.
If you have an existing toolbar or dashboard panel from a previous release,
you can create a new ribbon panel from them. Copy toolbars to a ribbon panel
from the Toolbars node under the Customizations In <file name> pane on the
Customize or Transfer tabs. Dashboard panels can only be copied to ribbon
panels from the Dashboard Panels node on the Transfer tab.
Display Ribbon Panels on the Ribbon
The display of ribbon panels is controlled with ribbon tabs. Once a ribbon tab
is defined, the ribbon tab can be added to a workspace, which controls which
ribbon tabs are displayed and the order in which they are displayed on the
ribbon. For more information about ribbon tabs, see
Ribbon Tabs on page 238
under
Customize User Interface Elements on page 192.
Associating Tool Palette Group with a Ribbon Panel
You can associate a tool palette group with a ribbon panel. By associating a
tool palette group to a ribbon panel you can quickly access additional tools
that are related to a ribbon panel and are defined on a tool palette. The
association of a tool palette group to a ribbon panel is done from the ribbon.
For more information about tool palettes and tool palette groups, see
Customize Tool Palettes and Organize Tool Palettes in the User’s Guide.
