Example |
Name |
Text used as the name and label of the command button; does appear in the user interface. Note: Use the “\n” character sequence to represent a line break and display a command label on more than one line. The “\n” character sequence is displayed as a space instead of the characters “\n” after the changes to the command are saved.

Button Style |
Controls the size and label display of the command. Note: It is recommended to not use the Large with Text (Horizontal) option as it takes up extra space on the ribbon.
If your icons are defined with sizes other than 16x16 for small icons or 32x32 for large icons, set RIBBONICONRESIZE to 0. The program does not resize ribbon icons to a standard size when RIBBONICONRESIZE is set to 0. Additionally, Button Style for the command or drop-down menu must be set to LargeWithoutText. |
