UI_EVENTTYPE enumeration (uiribbon.h)

Identifies the types of events associated with a Ribbon.

Syntax

typedef enum UI_EVENTTYPE {
  UI_EVENTTYPE_ApplicationMenuOpened = 0,
  UI_EVENTTYPE_RibbonMinimized = 1,
  UI_EVENTTYPE_RibbonExpanded = 2,
  UI_EVENTTYPE_ApplicationModeSwitched = 3,
  UI_EVENTTYPE_TabActivated = 4,
  UI_EVENTTYPE_MenuOpened = 5,
  UI_EVENTTYPE_CommandExecuted = 6,
  UI_EVENTTYPE_TooltipShown = 7
} ;

Constants

UI_EVENTTYPE_ApplicationMenuOpened Value: 0 The ApplicationMenu opened.
UI_EVENTTYPE_RibbonMinimized Value: 1 The Ribbon minimized.
UI_EVENTTYPE_RibbonExpanded Value: 2 The Ribbon expanded.

Remarks

UI_EVENTTYPE_TabActivated is fired for both core tabs and contextual tabs; the Ribbon event system does not distinguish between the two.

UI_EVENTTYPE_MenuOpened and UI_EVENTTYPE_MenuClosed are fired when either a regular menu or a gallery menu is opened or closed.

No event is fired when the QuickAccessToolbar menu is opened or closed.
