RadRibbonView Basckstage as user control

[Denis]

Good morning,

 

In an application we have multiple RadRibbonView, I want to know if it's possible to create the Backstage control as UserControl and attach it to any of our RadRibbonView.

 

Thanks

Hello Mario,

To achieve your requirement you can create a new UserControl and change its parent class from UserControl to RadRibbonBackstage. For example:

<telerik:RadRibbonBackstage x:Class="WpfApplication4.RibbonBackstageUserControl"
             xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
             xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
             xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
             xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
             xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation"
             mc:Ignorable="d"
             d:DesignHeight="300" d:DesignWidth="300">
    <telerik:RadRibbonBackstageItem Header="Item 1" />
    <telerik:RadRibbonBackstageItem Header="Item 2" />
    <telerik:RadRibbonBackstageItem Header="Item 3" />
    <telerik:RadRibbonBackstageItem Header="Item 4" />
</telerik:RadRibbonBackstage>

Then you can use it in the different ribbon views.

<telerik:RadRibbonView.Backstage>
    <local:RibbonBackstageUserControl />
</telerik:RadRibbonView.Backstage>

Hello, is there any possibility to close backstage from this user control?

Hello Jaroslav,

You can expose a property of type RadRibbonView in the UserControl and set it to the parent RadRibbonView. Then you can set the IsBackstageOpen property of the ribbon to False, when you want to close it.
