Change the look of a RibbonLabel or RibbonToggleButton

  •  Hi,

    I have a RibbonGroup with three columns of three controls.  Each column has a RibbonLabel and two RibbonToggleButtons beneath it.

    The problem is that since these all display as text-only (no image), a user can't tell which are buttons and which are labels.  Unless a button is in the pressed state, it looks just like a label and it's not obvious that you can click on it.

    Is there a way to differentiate how a RibbonLabel or RibbonToggleButton looks?  Ideally, I would change the buttons so they look like buttons even when not pressed. However, I haven't found any properties that let you change the appearance or fonts or colors of either control type.

    I can add images to the buttons, but I'm hoping to avoid that. 

    Any suggestions would be welcome!

     

    Thanks.

  • Hi Robert,

    There are Font, ForeColorInner, and other like properties in RibbonLabel
    and RibbonToggleButton components (since build 2.0.20091.141).
    For example, try the latest build of C1Ribbon:
