Key Features
Collapse the ribbon for a streamlined menu
The new ribbon menu supports a compact function to help users focus on their work. Commands not visible in the simplified menu can be accessed through a drop-down menu. Of course, if you need more space for commands, you can expand the ribbon to the previous three-line view.
See the complete Backstage
Create a complete Ribbon application using the Backstage view (also known as the application menu) and the Quick Access Toolbar. The Backstage view contains a tabbed list of basic commands that work throughout the application (like the File menu in Microsoft Word).
Support for 40 themes, including Microsoft Office styles
The ComponentOne Ribbon for WinForms comes with over 40 built-in themes, including Office 2013, Office 2016, and more. You can also customize themes using C1ThemeController.
Easy design with Visual Studio design-time support and templates
The Ribbon allows .NET developers to build applications that resemble Microsoft Office styles with very little code. Design-time support includes smart tags, a context-sensitive floating toolbar that activates with a single mouse click, and a collection editor. It includes over 20 built-in control types that can be used to customize the Ribbon, including text boxes, buttons, color pickers, date pickers, split buttons, progress bars, galleries, and more.
Ribbon Form Template
Easily create a WinForms Ribbon application and add a Ribbon form to your project using the installed Visual Studio template. The Ribbon template uses C1RibbonForm to ensure the Ribbon is flush with the application's edges and includes a status bar at the bottom.
Supports classic ribbon style
If you prefer a more classic ribbon look and feel, the Classic Ribbon control is also included in the WinForms Edition. The Classic Ribbon supports the Office 2007 and 2010 visual styles, as well as the simpler application menus commonly found in earlier versions of Office.
