Accessing unnamed RibbonGroups

[Chris]

Hello,

I am wondering what the best way to access RibbonGroups that belong to a RibbonTab is.  I am generating RibbonGroups dynamically, and they are not explicitly named, so I can't access them by name.  I tried writing some code to get the RibbonGroup children of a RibbonTab, but the children seem to be mostly Grids and Borders.

What I would like to do is animate all RibbonGroups that belong to a tab when that tab is opened.  Is there an easier way of doing this, or what can I do to access the properties of the RibbonGroups, and storyboard them?

Thanks.

Hi Chris,

Usually the RadRibbontab.Items collection will hold the RadRibbonGroups inside the tab. You can also use RadRibbonTab.ItemContainerGenerator.ContainerFromItem() method if you use databinding.  
Which properties of the RadRibbonGroup do you need to animate? Please note that animating Width or Height will be impossible or buggy in most cases.
