2009 Q3 Exit and Options Buttons in the RadRibbonBar

[Denny]

Hello,

how can I handle the click events of the Exit and Option Button in the RadRibbonBar?

THX.

Hello Denny Riedl,

Thanks for your question. Take a look at the following code snippet:

public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            this.radRibbonBar1.OptionsButton.Click += new EventHandler(OptionsButton_Click);
            this.radRibbonBar1.ExitButton.Click += new EventHandler(ExitButton_Click);
        }

        void ExitButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Exit button clicked");
        }

        void OptionsButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Options button clicked");
        }

You can access the Options and Exit buttons by using the corresponding properties of RadRibbonBarElement class.

Another way to subscribe for the events of these buttons is to select RadRibbonBar control in Visual Studio designer, open the Properties window, and use the Events section where the OptionsButton and the ExitButton are enlisted.

I hope this is helpful. Do not hesitate to write back if you need further assistance.

Hello Deylan,

thanks for the hint.

I use it in VB:

        AddHandler Me.RadRibbonBar1.ExitButton.Click, AddressOf Me.ExitButton_Click
        AddHandler Me.RadRibbonBar1.OptionsButton.Click, AddressOf Me.OptionsButton_Click

I don't see those events in the Properties Window with version 2013.1.321.40 using Visual Studio 2012. The design time event handlers seem to have disappeared. However setting the event handlers at run time does still work.

Hi John,

These events are not exposed on the control, they are events of a property of the control and this is why you do not see them at design time and you should use code to subscribe for them.

I hope this helps.
