What’s New in Krypton Ribbon?

KryptonGallery:This standalone control is used to present the user with a set of images they can select from. It has up/down scrolling buttons and a drop button that presents a context menu of all available images when pressed

New Elements:

KryptonRibbonGroupColorButton, KryptonRibbonGroupClusterColorButton: Both elements are specializations of the standard button and present a context menu used to select colors. They draw the selected color within the image area of the button so the user can see the current color.

KryptonRibbonGroupGallery: Provide a gallery of images that the user can select from. When reduced in size it becomes a large button that when pressed shows the images in a context menu.

What’s New in Krypton Ribbon Version 2?

New Events

MinimizedModeChanged

This event is fired whenever the MinimizedMode property changes value. It can change value either by a user action such as double clicking a ribbon tab header or because code has programmatically changed the value.

Bug Fixes

Visible property on groups and elements is not working

If you change the Visible property of a ribbon group or any of the group elements then it does not react immediately. Instead you have to wait until the ribbon is changed in size before the change occurs. This is now fixed.

TextLine1, TextLine2 on Group Buttons not updating

Just like the above Visible property change the changing of the text properties on a group button was updating the display immediately. This is fixed.

RibbonStrings.CustomizeQuickAccessToolbar

This string property was incorrectly converting any string you assign into capitals which is clearly not the required operation. Now it uses the actual string you assign without altering it.
