RibbonCustomizeManager: How to handle CheckBox etc

8 years 5 months ago #1 by Jörn
Demo RibbonApplication shows how to use customization(with RibbonCustomizeManager, RibbonCustomizeDialog, RibbonBarCustomizePage) of a ribbonbar.
But it seems it could handle actions only.
How can i customize ribbon bar with checkbox, radiobutton, combobox etc.?

For now, the best way to customize custom widgets is to add these to QWidgetAction and add then to RibbonGroup.

Thanks for the feedback.

Now i can see new items in the customization dialog and i can handle them in the dialog
But on new pages in the ribbon the items are not visible(or do not exist?)

I have modified the RibbonApplication example and i added a QWidgetAction to Home-page before "Paste"(see code below)

"CheckBoxControl1" is visible in ribbon. Now i add a new page/new group in cutomization dialog and add "CheckBoxControl1" to the new group.
But after leaving customization dialog there is now "CheckBoxControl1" in the new page.

Is my code correct?

Best regards, Jörn

void MainWindow::createGroupClipboard(Qtitan::RibbonPage* page)
{
if (Qtitan::RibbonGroup* groupClipboard = page->addGroup(::qtnIcon(Image_Clipboard), tr("Clipboard")))
{

//// modification
RibbonCheckBoxControl* checkBoxControl1 = new RibbonCheckBoxControl("checkBoxControl1");
QWidgetAction *wa1 = new QWidgetAction(this);
wa1->setDefaultWidget(checkBoxControl1);
wa1->setText("wa1");
groupClipboard->addAction(wa1);
///

groupClipboard->setOptionButtonVisible();

QAction* act = groupClipboard->optionButtonAction();
act->setText(tr("Clipboard"));
act->setIcon(QIcon(":/res/clipboardToolTip.png"));
act->setToolTip(tr("Show the Office clipboard Task Pane"));
act->setStatusTip(tr("Show the Office clipboard Task Pane"));
connect(act, SIGNAL(triggered()), this, SLOT(optionClipboard()));
