Important

Due to the many known limitations of the current implementation of the RadRibbonBar control, with the Q2 release of the RadControls for Silverlight and WPF we announced the new RadRibbonView control. It keeps the RibbonBar API but it significantly improves the design-time and databinding support of the control, as well as its functionality. In this blog post you can find more info about the differences between the two controls and a list of improvements that the RadRibbonView control brings to the "ribbon" UI.

Telerik Silverlight RibbonBar is an implementation of the Microsoft Office 2007 “ribbon” UI, which allows you to codelessly organize the navigation functionality of your application into a single compact toolbar control. Its popup engine, dynamic resizing and powerful customization capabilities make the Silverlight RibbonBar your shortcut to creating powerful navigation systems.
