How to customize the appearance of WinForms RibbonControl?
Customize the ribbon items
In TouchStyle Ribbon, each item of the WinForms RibbonControlAdv can be customized by using its property TouchStyleColorTable and function ApplyTouchStyleColorTable. The following code example demonstrates the same.
C#
//TouchStyleColorTable for RibbonControlAdv
TouchStyleColorTable TouchStyleColor = new TouchStyleColorTable();
//Sets the Header color of the RibbonControlAdv
TouchStyleColor.HeaderColor = ColorTranslator.FromHtml("#0272c5");
//Sets the ToolStrip border color
TouchStyleColor.ToolStripBorderColor = ColorTranslator.FromHtml("#0272c5");
//Sets the border color of the ToolStripTab item
TouchStyleColor.ToolstripTabItemBorder = ColorTranslator.FromHtml("#0272c5");
//Sets the menu button arrow color of the RibbonControlAdv
TouchStyleColor.MenuButtonArrowColor = Color.White;
//Sets the back color of the Ribbon panel
TouchStyleColor.RibbonPanelBackColor = Color.LightSkyBlue;
//Sets the hover color of the Button
TouchStyleColor.ButtonHoverColor = Color.Red;
//Applies the TouchStyleColorTable to RibbonControlAdv
this.ribbonControlAdv1.ApplyTouchStyleColorTable(TouchStyleColor);
VB
