Image File dialog box.

Organize Commands and Controls with Rows

A row, similar to a toolbar, determines the order and position that commands

and controls appear on a ribbon panel. Rows run horizontally on a ribbon

panel no matter if the ribbon is displayed horizontally or vertically. Not all

rows might be displayed by default on a ribbon panel, the <SLIDEOUT>

element controls which rows are displayed without expanding a ribbon panel.

A down arrow to the right of a ribbon panel’s title indicates that the ribbon

panel can be expanded.

Organize Rows with Sub-panels

Sub-panels do not directly contain commands. Instead, sub-panels are used

in combination with rows to organize commands and controls on a ribbon

panel.

Organize Rows with Fold Panels

Fold panels can have buttons, toggles button, split buttons, and drop-down

buttons. Button Style must be set to Large with Text. Fold panels can be

converted to sub-panels.
