Remarks

Visual Studio creates a RibbonLabel object for you when you drag a Label from the Office Ribbon Controls tab of the Toolbox onto the Ribbon Designer.

To add a label to a group at run time, create a new RibbonLabel object, and then add this object to the Items collection of a RibbonGroup or the Items collection of a RibbonBox. You can do this only before the Ribbon is loaded. For more information, see Ribbon Object Model Overview.

You can create a RibbonLabel at run time by using the CreateRibbonLabel method of the RibbonFactory object.

There are two ways to access the RibbonFactory object:

  • By using the Factory property of the Ribbon class. Use this approach from code in your Ribbon class.

  • By using the Globals.Factory.GetRibbonFactory method. Use this approach from code outside your Ribbon class.

Note

This interface is implemented by the Visual Studio Tools for Office runtime. It is not intended to be implemented in your code. For more information, see Visual Studio Tools for Office Runtime Overview.
