AvaloniaRibbon

Ribbon Control for Avalonia

The purpose of this Avalonia component is to replicate Microsoft's Ribbon UI, as seen in Windows 8+'s File Explorer, Microsoft Office 2007+, and in various other places, for Avalonia. In its present state, it is fairly usable, but some features are still missing, so it should not considered complete.

It is presently used in Jaya File Manager, but other projects are welcome to use it as well.

AvaloniaRibbon in its current form is developed and maintained by Splitwirez at the AvaloniaRibbon repo. It is is based on an earlier repo by Alban Mazerolles, which can be found here.

Fluent theme:

    <StyleInclude Source="avares://AvaloniaUI.Ribbon/Styles/Fluent/AvaloniaRibbon.xaml" />

"Default" theme:

    <StyleInclude Source="avares://AvaloniaUI.Ribbon/Styles/Default/AvaloniaRibbon.xaml" />

and localized text (same for both themes):

    <ResourceInclude Source="avares://AvaloniaUI.Ribbon/Locale/en-ca.xaml" />

Use the below mentioned sample as an example to use the ribbon control.

Update to Avalonia 0.10
Added Fluent Theme

Added Quick Access Toolbar (Experimental)
Assorted bugfixes
Probably something else I forgot to mention lol

Re-organized some stuff
RibbonWindow is now an actual Window in its own right
Control size variants are now properties of a control, rather than entirely separate controls
Added dynamic control size adjustment
Added Gallery control
Major XAML cleanup
Switched to using standard Avalonia colours/brushes
Added RibbonMenu
Ribbon can now be collapsed or expanded (shows selected groups temporarily in a Popup when a tab is clicked if the Ribbon is collapsed)
Ribbon can now be horizontally or vertically oriented (real-time value changes are not yet fully functional, but compile-time/startup-time changes should work without a hitch)

Please acknowledge Splitwirez for all the last new features added to the ribbon. As far as I'm concerned, I'm just centralizing code and updating the nuget.

You can also acknowledge Rubal Walia as well for cleaning up all my messy code.
