Is it possible to remove CMFCRibbonPanel from CMFCRibbonCategory?

Question

Hi,

i'm looking for a trick to remove an CMFCRibbonPanel from CMFCRibbonCategory. There is just AddPanel() function in the CMFCRibbonCategory, but no RemovePanel().

Do I really need to rebuild my whole CMFCRibbonCategory to do this?

EDIT:

Just for clarification, what i want is to remove panel itself from the category and not the elements from the panel.

Answer 1

I don't know anything about CMFCRibbonPanel and CMFCRibbonCategory. After seeing the class declaration in MSDN I thought you can get a reference to CMFCRibbonPanel from CMFCRibbonCategory and call CMFCRibbonPanel::RemoveAll on the pointer.

CMFCRibbonCategory *pCategory = m_wndRibbonBar.GetCategory(0);

if (pCategory)
{
     CMFCRibbonPanel *pPanel = pCategory->GetPanel(0);

     if (pPanel)
     {
        pPanel->RemoveAll();
        m_wndRibbonBar.AdjustSizeImmediate();
     }
}

Answer 2

In my case I did end up rebuilding the category from scratch. In the CMFCRibbonCategory source code (look for afxribboncategory.cpp) there is no apparent way to remove a panel from the panels array.

Hi, Sir. can I remove a element from CMFCRibbonButtonsGroup? after Add a CMFCRibbonButtonsGroup, I want to remove a element CMFCRibbonButton but I can not remove it. how can I do? for example: // Create a new group with 2 elements: font name and font size: CMFCRibbonButtonsGroup* pFontGroup = new CMFCRibbonButtonsGroup; CMFCRibbonFontComboBox* pFontCombo = new CMFCRibbonFontComboBox(ID_FONT_CHANGE); pFontGroup->AddButton(pFontCombo); CMFCRibbonComboBox* pFontSizeCombo = new CMFCRibbonComboBox(ID_FONT_SIZE, TRUE, 39); pFontGroup->AddButton(pFontSizeCombo); pPanelFont->Add(pFontGroup);

and then I want to remove "pFontSizeCombo" in runtime.
