Ribbon Layouts

10 May 202424 minutes to read

The Ribbon allows to customize the layout by using the activeLayout property. The Ribbon component supports the following layouts:

Classic layout

In classic layout, the Ribbon component organizes the items and groups in a traditional form by setting the activeLayout property to Classic. By default, the Ribbon component renders in the Classic layout.

var tabs = [
  {
    header: "Home",
    groups: [
      {
        header: "Clipboard",
        collections: [
          {
            items: [
              {
                type: "Button",
                buttonSettings: {
                  content: "Paste",
                  iconCss: "e-icons e-paste",
                }
              },
            ],
          },
          {
            items: [

                  iconCss: "e-icons e-cut",
                }
              },

                buttonSettings: {

Defining items size

You can use the allowedSizes property to set the allowed size for an item. The Ribbon items can be appeared in three different sizes: Large(large icon with text), Medium(small icon with text) and Small(small icon only). On resizing, the items size can be changed based on the available width of the tab content from the order of Large-> Medium-> Small and viceversa.

var tabs = [{
  header: "Home",
  groups: [{
    collections: [{
      items: [{
        type: 'SplitButton',
        allowedSizes: ej.ribbon.RibbonItemSize.Large,
        splitButtonSettings: {
          iconCss: 'e-icons e-paste',
          content: 'Paste',
          items: [{ text: 'Keep Source Format' }, { text: 'Merge format' }, { text: 'Keep text only' }]
        }
      }]
    }, {
      items: [{
        type: 'Button',
        allowedSizes: ej.ribbon.RibbonItemSize.Medium,
        buttonSettings: {
          content: 'Cut',
          iconCss: 'e-icons e-cut'
        }
      }, {
        type: 'Button',
        allowedSizes: ej.ribbon.RibbonItemSize.Small,
        buttonSettings: {
          content: 'Copy',
          iconCss: 'e-icons e-copy'
        }
      }]
    }]
  }]
}];

var ribbon = new ej.ribbon.Ribbon({
  tabs: tabs
});
ribbon.appendTo("#ribbon");

Defining items orientation

The Ribbon group orientation property allows to manage how the items are aligned either in a Row or Column. By default, the orientation is set to Column, in which the items are arranged vertically.

var fontSize = ['8', '9', '10', '11', '12', '14', '16', '18', '20', '22', '24', '26', '28', '36', '48', '72', '96'];
var fontStyle = ['Algerian', 'Arial', 'Calibri', 'Cambria', 'Cambria Math', 'Courier New', 'Candara', 'Georgia', 'Impact', 'Segoe Print', 'Segoe Script', 'Segoe UI', 'Symbol', 'Times New Roman', 'Verdana', 'Windings'
];

var tabs = [{
    header: "Home",
    groups: [{
        collections: [{
            items: [{
                type: 'SplitButton',
                allowedSizes: ej.ribbon.RibbonItemSize.Large,
                splitButtonSettings: {
                    iconCss: 'e-icons e-paste',
                    content: 'Paste',
                    items: [{ text: 'Keep Source Format' }, { text: 'Merge format' }, { text: 'Keep text only' }]
                }
            }]
        }, {

        }]

        collections: [{
            items: [{
                type: 'ComboBox',
                comboBoxSettings: {

When the orientation is set to Row a group may have a maximum of three collections each of which may contain any number of items. When the orientation is set to Column a group may have any number of collections, each of which may contain one large-sized item or three medium/small-sized items. If two large-sized items are specified, it automatically converts into two medium/small-sized items.

Defining group header

You can use the header property to set the name for each group header.

var tabs = [{
    header: "Home",
    groups: [{
        header: 'Clipboard',
        collections: [{
            items: [{
                type: 'SplitButton',
                allowedSizes: ej.ribbon.RibbonItemSize.Large,
                splitButtonSettings: {
                    iconCss: 'e-icons e-paste',
                    items: [
                        { text: 'Keep Source Format' },
                        { text: 'Merge format' },
                        { text: 'Keep text only' },
                    ],
                    content: 'Paste',
                }
            }]
        }]
    },
    {
        header: 'Font',
        collections: [{
            items: [{
                type: 'Button',
                buttonSettings: {
                    content: 'Bold',
                    iconCss: 'e-icons e-bold',
                }
            }, {
                type: 'Button',
                buttonSettings: {
                    content: 'Italic',
                    iconCss: 'e-icons e-italic',
                }
            }, {

            }]
        }]
    }]
}];

var ribbon = new ej.ribbon.Ribbon({
    tabs: tabs

Defining group icon

You can use the groupIconCss property to customize the icons in the group overflow button. When the ribbon size is adjusted, the group popup will appear.

var fontSize = ['8', '9', '10', '11', '12', '14', '16', '18', '20', '22', '24', '26', '28', '36', '48', '72', '96'];
var fontStyle = ['Algerian', 'Arial', 'Calibri', 'Cambria', 'Cambria Math', 'Courier New', 'Candara', 'Georgia', 'Impact', 'Segoe Print', 'Segoe Script', 'Segoe UI', 'Symbol', 'Times New Roman', 'Verdana', 'Windings'

Enabling group launcher icon

You can use the showLauncherIcon property to enable or disable the launcher icon for each group. By default, the property is set to false.

var tabs = [{

      showLauncherIcon: true,
      collections: [{
          items: [{

              splitButtonSettings: {

                  items: [{ text: 'Keep Source Format' }, { text: 'Merge format' }, { text: 'Keep text only' }],
                  content: 'Paste'

Defining group collapsible state

You can use the isCollapsible property to determine whether the group is collapsed or not during resize. By default, the property is set to true. To prevent the group from being collapsed, set the property to false.

var fontSize = ['8', '9', '10', '11', '12', '14', '16', '18', '20', '22', '24', '26', '28', '36', '48', '72', '96'];

Defining priority order for group collapse or expand

You can use the priority property to set the priority order for each group which should be collapsed or expanded on resizing. When collapsing, higher priority values are fetched first. When expanding, lower priority values are fetched first.

Simplified layout

In simplified layout, the Ribbon component organizes the items and groups into a single row by setting the activeLayout property to Simplified.

Minimized State

You can hide the Ribbon contents and display only the tab headers by double-clicking on the tab header. In minimized state, the Ribbon control expands to its normal state when click on the tab header.

You can use the isMinimized property to change the Ribbon component to minimized state. By default, the value is false.

var tabs = [
  {
    header: "Home",
    groups: [
      {
        header: "Clipboard",
        collections: [
          {
            items: [
              {
                type: "Button",
                buttonSettings: {
                  content: "Paste",
                  iconCss: "e-icons e-paste",
                }
              },
            ],
          },
          {
            items: [
              {
                type: "Button",
                buttonSettings: {
                  content: "Cut",
                  iconCss: "e-icons e-cut",
                }
              },
              {

                  iconCss: "e-icons e-copy",

                        ]
