Trying to change my existing application to new Ribbon bar, Have a doubt how to adjust ribbon bar on the screen relative to other tabs.

That is how to make ribbon bar floating.

As we can see in the above screenshot, the yellow highlighted part is getting hidden under the ribbon bar, how to make that relative to the given space?

Hi, Apoorva -

What version/release/build of PB are you using?

Are you using a framework (such as PFC or STD, for example)? If so, how old or recent is it?

Is this application utilizing a standard MDI "frame" window, or is it using the new tabbed-interface?

I admittedly have very little experience using the RibbonBar, but I believe it does not support "floating" functionality as does a conventional toolbar, if that is what you are referring to. The RibbonBar works very differently from a normal toolbar. If your app is an MDI application and you have not made allowances to adjust the size/position of the MDI Client object (mdi_1) to account for the space occupied by the RibbonBar, this is likely the source of your problem.

There should be a generous amount of documentation in the PB Help regarding the configuration and use of the RibbonBar, so I suggest you review all of it.

Best regards, John
