Ribbon for WPF

Office-Like User Interface

Actipro Ribbon is a control suite that implements an Office-like user interface for WPF applications. It meets 100% of the required and optional Microsoft licensing requirements for implementation of a ribbon user interface, and is the most feature-rich WPF ribbon available today.

The ribbon user interface was designed to replace the standard types of menus and toolbars that have been used in applications for the past 10+ years. Ribbons consolidate all user interface commands into a single location, which is easy to use and scales up and down well, thereby providing fast access to all commands regardless of window size.
