  We want to control the order the RibbonGroups or RibbonItems collapse due to smaller window sizes. Is this possible?

  For example, we may have controls in the left half of the ribbon that are ‘less important’ than some groups in the right half and want the left group to collapse first. The default behavior is that groups collapse from right to left.

  Hi,

  Please note that you can not change the order of groups collapsing.
  
  Groups collapsing from right to left is the designed behavior and is similar to the behavior of ribbon in MS Word, etc.

  Hi,

  Sorry for the inconvenience, but we have received further information on this from the development team. The ribbon has several states of group sizing Full, TrimGroupCaption, Medium, Small, CollapsedGalleries and Collapsed.
  
  When the ribbon calculates what width of the Ribbon is needed, the Ribbon sets the size of each group, in turn, the first value, then the second, etc.
  
  However, you can change collapsing behavior, as the ribbon items have SupportedGroupSizing property (Any be the default).
  
  If you set this property for some ribbon items, then these items will ignore the group size and will use only the supported size.
  
  Can you please provide a sample of where you are getting the right-to-left behavior?

  Regards.
