What are the implications if...

edited July 2023 in SRP Ribbon Control
The "Window" attribute in the "Control" element of the ribbon initialisation isn't the actual name of the parent window?

It seems to work because we've been using it with the wrong name for, well, forever, but I was wondering why then, was it important and could it have some impact that we simply weren't aware of?

  • The Window attribute is ignored. It is there to self document the XML. Maybe it will be useful to a framework that uses naming conventions to automatically assign a setup to a window.
  • Thanks for clarifying.
    I just happened to notice ours was not correct and then stumbled over this

    and wondered if we were unknowingly breaking something.
  • Fixed the wiki. I must have had big plans for that field, but I can assure you--looking at the codebase--it is completely ignored. Sorry for the confusion.
  • :D all good Kev.
    I know the feeling.
    I often have big plans too and then get completely ignored. :)
