    Context Sensitive Ribbons

    OpenGround Cloud Professional incorporates a Ribbon style interface similar to those found in other modern applications. This enables users to rapidly navigate from one part of the interface to another while still keeping track of where in the application they are.

    OpenGround Cloud Professionalalso utilises Context Sensitive Ribbon. A Context Sensitive Ribbon appears when using a specific part of the application and will display a series of icons representing features relating to the current operation. For example, when selecting a Map, the ribbon will update to show the Map Tools ribbon menu.

    Clicking on any interactive part of the OpenGround Cloud Professional interface will mark that part of the application as 'active' and will update the ribbon interface to display options relevant to the current area if applicable.

    On the main Project View when first opening OpenGround Cloud Professional, you are presented with a Project list and a Map. Try clicking on the map and then the grid and notice how the ribbon updates from Grid tools to Mapping Tools.

    When clicking on a mapping interface, a specific ribbon panel is shown, showing specific commands relating to that area.

    Selecting a different part of the application will hide the context sensitive ribbon relating to that part of the application.

    Note: The orange background given to the context-sensitive panel in the ribbon. An orange background indicates that these options are only applicable to the currently selected area and may not be shown elsewhere in the program.
