  Hi everybody,

  I’m currently creating an Outlook-GUI-like App for the 1st time. This means the ribbon needs to be completely changed when I change program parts within a left docked C1 NavBar

  like you see when you enter Mail vs Calendar part in Outlook

  What is the “elegant” way to change the whole ribbon when I change within the NavBar. Is there a sample showing this?

  The samples I found all have (only) ONE ribbon with different groups

  Hi Andreas!

  I’m working on this case, to inform you about the appropriate way for achieving this feature. Will be back soon.

  Hi Andreas!

  I’m attaching a small sample application for your reference, that demonstrates different C1Ribbon controls in different panels (corresponding to Mail, Calendar).

  Prj_OutlookAppearance.zip

  Now, you can customize the C1Ribbon controls as per your needs. However, I would like to inform you that it is not possible to achieve the exact Outlook appearance using C1Ribbon only.
  
  So, you can try using other controls in these panels so as to give it an Outlook appearance.

  Here is a help link, for the same:
