Customize Ribbon Panels and Tabs
Concept Procedure
 
 
 

You can customize the ribbon by creating and modifying ribbon panels and organizing ribbon panels into groups of task based tools with ribbon tabs.

  • Create and Edit Ribbon Panels

    By customizing ribbon panels, you can organize commands that you use frequently similar to toolbars. With ribbon panels, you can quickly access commands, and reduce the number of user interface elements that are displayed.

  • Add or Switch Ribbon Panel Controls

    Ribbon panel controls are drop-down lists, sliders, text boxes, and other panel-specific controls. For example, the Layers panel contains controls for changing the layers in a drawing. In the Customize User Interface (CUI) Editor, you can add, remove, and relocate controls on panels.

  • Create and Edit Ribbon Tabs

    Ribbon tabs control the display and order of ribbon panels on the ribbon. You add ribbon tabs to a workspace to control which ribbon tabs are displayed on the ribbon.
