    Groups added to ribbon are placed in an overflow group

    Products: MicroStation CONNECT Edition

    Background: The ribbon in the CONNECT Edition is highly customizable. Some users, especially those with wide or ultra-wide displays may want to have access to a larger number of groups. After a number of groups are added to a tab an overflow group is automatically created containing any added group to that tab:

    Fig 1.

    Solution:

    Change the value of MS_RIBBON_NUMEXPANDEDTASKGROUPS.

    Fig 2. Same ribbon as fig. 1 with MS_RIBBON_NUMEXPANDEDTASKGROUPS=8

    Tips:

    • Alternatively you could decrease the number to limit the number of expanded groups decluttering the ribbon.

    • Overflow Groups retain their position mapped key

    • By default the value is set to 8 you can increase this to a number required. Note that if you are using position mapping you may want to limit the number to the number of available position mapped keys.
