    I just upgraded to the latest release of WinForms and am trying to add controls to a RibbonBarGroup using the following code:

            private void SetupRibbonBar()  
            {  
                RadLabel lblStartDate = new RadLabel();  
                lblStartDate.Text = "Start Date";  
                lblStartDate.Location = new Point(2, 2);  
     
                RadLabel lblEndDate = new RadLabel();  
                lblEndDate.Text = "End Date";  
                lblStartDate.Location = new Point(2, 24);  
     
                RadDateTimePicker StartDate = new RadDateTimePicker();  
                StartDate.MinimumSize = new Size(150, 20);  
                StartDate.Location = new Point(13, 2);  
                StartDate.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Short;  
                  
                RadDateTimePicker EndDate = new RadDateTimePicker();  
                EndDate.MinimumSize = new Size(150, 20);  
                EndDate.Location = new Point(13, 24);  
                EndDate.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Short;  
     
                RadPanel panel = new RadPanel();  
                panel.Controls.AddRange(new Control[] { lblStartDate, lblEndDate, StartDate, EndDate });  
                  
                RadHostItem item1 = new RadHostItem(panel);  
                this.RibbonBarGroupReportPeriod.Items.Add(item1);  
            }  
     

    Everything builds fine, but when I run the project nothing shows up in the RibbonBarGroup.

    Hello Jim,

    Thank you for the question.

    In order to show RadControls in RadRibbonBar, you need to set the MinSize of both RadPanel and RadRibbonBarGroup. For additional information, please refer to the support ticket that you have opened about the same topic.

    Kind regards,
