Hi all,

We have this menu as of now in our CRM. However the menu options might grow in future.

What we need is that we need to group the last 3 menu options and show in next level like:

- Fetch Prices

- Print -> Print Normal

-> Test Print

-> Send Offer

So can we have something like this in ribbon workbench and simplify the menu.

Any suggestions/workarounds are appreciated.

Thank you,

Prashant.

HI Prashant,

If you want a sub-menu you simply need to drag another Flytout Button onto the menu instead of the Print button.

You can also dynamically build menus using Javascript if you need to - but it's certainly easier to pre-define the menu items.

See how to dynamically build then - develop1.net/.../Add-Dynamic-Menu-to-Ribbon-Button.aspx

Hope this answers your question?

Hi Wouter and Scott,

@Wouter - Thank you for your reply. I had read that earlier but somehow didn't managed to work on it. But still Thank you very much.

@Scott - Your answer on this site helped me a lot. https://www.gittprogram.com/question/769892_multi-level-ribbon-menu.html

And then tweaking some of my requirements there I managed to get the desired output.

Sharing the code and image for future searchers.

Credit goes to you Scott. (already following you on twitter ;) )

Thanks a lot !!!
