Accessing Quick Access Toolbar at runtime - Ribbon for WPF Forum

Posted 17 years ago by Brad Daszynski

Version: 1.0.0347

Hi. I am trying to be able to access the Quick Access Toolbar at runtime, so that users can customize what items are actually in the toolbar. In XAML, I've specified items easily, such as:

<ribbon:Ribbon.QuickAccessToolBarItems>
<ribbon:Button Command="ApplicationCommands.Cut" />
<ribbon:Button Command="ApplicationCommands.Copy" />
<ribbon:Button Command="ApplicationCommands.Paste" />
</ribbon:Ribbon.QuickAccessToolBarItems>

but how would I add/remove items dynamically in procedural code? Thanks.

Hi Brad,

Yes, something like this works:

RibbonControls.Button button = new RibbonControls.Button(System.Windows.Input.ApplicationCommands.Paste);
ribbon.QuickAccessToolBarItems.Add(button);

I added a button successfully, and set the foreground to White, but it still appears as black. Any ideas?

Also, how would I set the ImageSourceSmall or ImageSourceLarge in code?

Many thanks.

Good find, we'll update the styles to use the Foreground property setting for the next maintenance release.

They take any valid ImageSource, although generally people will use a BitmapImage. The MSDN info on BitmapImage has some sample code for loading it programmatically.
