I add groups to RibbonBar by using the method :AddGroup(). As a result, all groups will be lined up from left to right. Can I make the arrangement of groups from right to left ?

Dear Yuri,

Do you want the first group to become to rightmost group or just to move all of them to the right but respecting the current order ?

1, 2, 3, 4, ... --> ..., 4, 3, 2, 1

or

1, 2, 3, 4, ... --> (right) 1, 2, 3, 4, ...

thanks

Also, if the window that contains the ribbonbar is resized, what should be the expected behavior ?

1. The groups automatically move to the left so they remain visible ?

2. The groups remain where they are, becoming not visible if the window width is not enough to show them

May I ask you whats the reason for wanting this behavior ?

The program is always expanded to full screen. I.e. the ribbonbar groups are always visible. On one of the windows, I use buttons with large icons in the ribbon bar and it is visually more convenient for me to see the groups pressed to the right. It would be very convenient to specify the horizontal position of the group - this way you can adjust to any screen

Dear Yuri,

Once you create your ribbonbar as usual, please call this function passing the ribbonbar as the parameter:

Here it is working fine :-)

Code: Select all | Expand

function RibbonGroupsToRight( oRBar )

   local oDlg, oRBGroup, nTotalWidth, nWidth

   for each oDlg in oRBar:aDialogs
      nTotalWidth = 0
      for each oRBGroup in oDlg:aControls
         nTotalWidth += oRBGroup:nWidth 
      next

      for each oRBGroup in oDlg:aControls
         nWidth = oRBGroup:nWidth
         oRbGroup:nLeft  = oRBar:nWidth - nTotalWidth - 5
         oRbGroup:nRight = oRBGroup:nLeft + nWidth
         __objModMethod( oRBGroup, "CalPos", @Empty() )
         nTotalWidth -= nWidth
      next
   next   

return nil

I have this result :

Dear Mark,

Many thanks for your feedback

I have tested it using FWH\samples\rbdesign.prg and it seems to work fine.

Wondering what could be the difference. Here you have rbdesign.prg modified to use the function. Please build it and test it, many thanks

Your sample is working.

For my purpose, i don't need them to flip to the right, so if the original poster has it working, no time is needed to find why it is not working here...

The code I use is like this :

Maybe the fact that I have a hardcoded MOSTLEFT for the buttons, they can't go right.

Code: Select all | Expand


   DEFINE RIBBONBAR oRBar WINDOW oWnd PROMPT "Klanten", "Leveranciers", "Ingeven Documenten";
      HEIGHT 130 TOPMARGIN 25

//  Databases =============================
   ADD GROUP oGr1  RIBBON oRBar TO OPTION 1 PROMPT "Databases" width 130 ;
      BITMAP "bitmaps\maveco.ico"

   @ 02, 05 ADD BUTTON oBtn1_1 GROUP oGr1 BITMAP "bitmaps\cut16.BMP" ;
      SIZE 120, 20 PROMPT "Klanten"  MOSTLEFT round ;
      action ( Folder_klanten(oWnd) )

   @ 24, 05 ADD BUTTON oBtn1_2 GROUP oGr1 BITMAP "bitmaps\copy16.BMP" ;
      SIZE 120, 20 PROMPT "Leveranciers"  MOSTLEFT round;
      action ( Folder_Leveranciers(oWnd) )

   @ 46, 05 ADD BUTTON oBtn1_3 GROUP oGr1 BITMAP "bitmaps\paste16.BMP" ;
      SIZE 120, 20 PROMPT "Artikels"  MOSTLEFT round;
      action ( Folder_artikels(oWnd) )

//  Documents =============================

   ADD GROUP oGr2  RIBBON oRBar TO OPTION 1 PROMPT "Documents" width 130 ;
      BITMAP "bitmaps\fivetech.BMP"

   @ 02, 05 ADD BUTTON oBtn2_1 GROUP oGr2 BITMAP "bitmaps\cut16.BMP" ;
      SIZE 120, 20 PROMPT "Orders"  MOSTLEFT round ;
      action ( Folder_Orders(oWnd) )

//  X-Browsers =============================

Thank you, Antonio! However, it does not work.

If I use the __objModMethod() function, the program closes (without an error).
If I don't use it, then the groups move as they should, but when you hover the mouse cursor, they immediately return to the left side of the ribbonbar

Dear Yuri,

Are you using Harbour or xHarbour ?

Posted: **Wed Jul 06, 2022 6:49 pm**

xHarbour

Posted: **Thu Jul 07, 2022 5:00 am**

Dear Yuri,

Time to migrate to Harbour. Forget about xHarbour, follow my advise :-)

Posted: **Thu Jul 07, 2022 5:10 am**

If you need to continue with xHarbour, for any reason, then you need to modify Class TRbGroup Method CalPos()

A perfect time and reason to go for Harbour ;-)
