Stop RibbonView from disappearing

[Daniel]

Hi, 

I'm would like to know if it's possible to stop the RibbonView from disappearing completely when the window has been shrunk beyond a certain point. I've tried using CollapseThreshold, and I've also specified that the Buttons can only use the large variant. This works to keep the buttons large, but at a certain window size the RibbonView will still disappear completely. I would like to modify this behavior so that the RibbonView never collapses. If this can be a system wide style or property change, that would be the optimal solution.

Thanks you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Regards, 

Dan

Hello Daniel,

Have you tried setting the CollapseThresholdSize to 0,0? This should do the trick. We also attached a sample solution in the support thread you started so you can test it locally and let us know if there are any issues.

Kind regards,

Hi Alex,

RadRibbonView.CollapseThresholdSize property allows you to control the size under which the ribbon will collapse - for instance when you resize the window or the control where the ribbon is hosted. 

As for the ribbon groups - you can specify their size trough the GroupVariant property. If you want a group to be only in Large variant, you can do the following:

<telerik:RadRibbonGroup>
   <telerik:RadRibbonGroup.Variants>
 <telerik:GroupVariant Variant="Large"/>
   </telerik:RadRibbonGroup.Variants>
         ...
</telerik:RadRibbonGroup>

More about the dynamic layout resizing in ribbonview you can find in our help topic Resizing.

I hope this information is helpful.
