Hello Deng,

You can wrap the RadRibbonView control in a RadRibbonWindow. The RibbonWindow is used to replace the Window control that represents the root UI of a WPF application. It's purpose is to allow you to have a smoother UI when hosting the RadRibbonView at the root level of the application.

This article can give you more information on how to integrate the RibbonView and RibbonWindow controls.

Hi,

I'm using the NoXaml Binaries, added a reference to Telerik.Windows.Themes.Office2013 and have to Xaml Files.

- RadRibbonWindow
- RadRibbonView

I tried

RadRibbonWindow.IsWindowsThemeEnabled = false;
StyleManager.ApplicationTheme = new Office2013ThemeExternal();

to make the Window look nicer, but it actually just becomes empty.

Hello Markus,

Office2013 theme cannot be set through the StyleManager. Instead you need to use implicit styles to take advantage of this theme as described in the Office2013 tutorial. You can take a look at this blog post outlining the advantages of the implicit styling mechanism. I also attached a sample solution demonstrating this approach so that you can give it a try on your side.

You can also take a look at the RibbonWindow tutorial and specifically its Themes section for more information on how to apply a built-in theme on the RibbonWindow.
