Example ribbons in Office 2010 TP and Office 2007 Black visual themes.

Elegant Ribbon is a set of Windows Forms controls that allow you quickly and easily provide your application with a new-generation user interface like that introduced in Microsoft Office 2007. It is written in 100% managed C# and is CLS compliant. The following innovative approaches were used: context-sensitive and windowless controls, command-oriented programming interface, XML-based skinning, and WYSIWYG and rich design-time support in Visual Studio. All the implemented features fully meet 2007 Microsoft Office System User Interface Design Guidelines.
