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.

Updates in V4.0

What's New

• Added a Navigation Bar multi-purpose control that allows you to combine similar items in vertically stacked groups so that the user can easily navigate through and access these items. The control supports three different views: Normal, Accordion and Outlook. If none of the standard appearances fits your taste, you can customize its look.
• Added a Navigation Bar sample to illustrate the features of the Navigation Bar control.
• Added support for shortcut keys in controls inside ribbons and pop-up menus.
• Optimized memory management for better garbage collection.
• Now you can customize the content of your screen tips. For example, you can play video in your screen tips.
• Added support for background images in all controls.

Bug Fixes

• When resizing the window, ribbon groups got collapsed too early.
• Design time bugs in the drop-down, split button and color picker.
• Other minor improvements.
• Scrollbar painting issue in the multi-line textbox.
