Control ID Editor

Each Ribbon Control / Ribbon Element has to have a unique ID in the Ribbon XML.

The Control ID Editor provides both, a customized denomination and ensures that any ID used on the Ribbon is unique.

In the field labeled

• Name
  

you may edit any denomination for the Ribbon Control.

The Control ID Editor assembles the new ID composed of a prefix for the control and the denomination. Prior you can store the new ID by clicking the button [OK] you have to check it. This can be done by using the button labeled

• Verify new ID
