PowerBuilder 2025 R2 introduces several usability and layout improvements to the RibbonView feature, aligning its behavior with mainstream office applications.
-
QuickAccessToolbar tooltips
Tooltips defined for QuickAccessToolbar items are now also displayed in the Windows taskbar when the mouse is over QuickAccessToolbar.
-
ToolbarItemSpace property
A new ToolbarItemSpace property is supported for QuickAccessToolbar items. It allows developers to insert spacing between toolbar buttons, enabling clearer grouping and layout.
For example, spacing can be used to separate “Save/Print” from “Undo/Redo” commands.
-
Double-click category to toggle ribbon bar
End users can now double-click on a Category (tab header) to quickly collapse or expand the ribbon bar, similar to the behavior in Microsoft Office.
-
Ribbon bar supports more themes
To keep in sync with the application themes, the RibbonBar BuiltinTheme property supports the following themes (in addition to 1 -- Flat Design Blue, 2 -- Flat Design Dark, 3 -- Flat Design Grey, 4 -- Flat Design Silver):
5 -- Flat Design Lime
6 -- Flat Design Orange
