Title:
WFP and Third party control
HI,
I'm working with MM.NET v3.6 and am trying to get started doing WFP applications with a third party control from DevComponents.com It's called DotNetBar for WPF and only costs $250 (royalty-free distribution). Among the many controls in this package, it includes a WPF Ribbon control that can be styled just like the Office 2007 ribbon and even the upcoming Office 2010 ribbon. I have played with their samples and even created an app from scratch using their ribbon control. It's seems easy enough to get started and be productive making a very attractive user interface.
My problem, when it comes to MM.NET, is that the ribbon control requires it's own ribbon window class in order for the ribbon to work. And, of course, MM.NET has it's own window class hierarchy. So I'm wondering if there's a way to work in multiple inheritance regarding the Window classes, or some other technique whereby I can utilize this ribbon control in a MM.NET WFP application???
Has anyone worked with this third party component yet (inside a MM.NET application)?
Any ideas what my options are to make it work?
Thanks,
Guy
