How to reproduce: just create a ribbon form with many collapsed ribbon bar groups, e.g. 20 and try to resize the form: Workaround: change all RadRibbonBarGrpoup instances with the custom class below public class MyRadRibbonBarGroup : RadRibbonBarGroup { override public bool ExpandElementToStep(int collapseStep) { bool result = false; if (!this.CanCollapseOrExpandElement(ChunkVisibilityState.Expanded)) { return result; } this.InvalidateIfNeeded(); if (this.CollapseStep == (int)ChunkVisibilityState.Collapsed) { this.ExpandChunkFromDropDown(); --this.CollapseStep; result = true; this.CollapseCollection((int)ChunkVisibilityState.NoText); } else { result = this.ExpandCollection(collapseStep); } return result; } private void ExpandChunkFromDropDown() { this.DropDownElement.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed; this.DropDownElement.Items.Clear(); ElementWithCaptionLayoutPanel el = (ElementWithCaptionLayoutPanel)typeof(RadRibbonBarGroup).GetField("elementWithCaptionLayoutPanel", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic).GetValue(this); this.Children.Add(el); } private bool CanCollapseOrExpandElement(ChunkVisibilityState state) { if (this.IsDesignMode) { return false; } return true; } }
