[RibbonGroup("DGTQATButtonsGroup", ContextByType = typeof(EditorController))]

[RibbonGroupLayout(LocationByType = typeof(TranslationStudioDefaultRibbonTabs.EditorReviewRibbonTabLocation))]

class DGTQATButtonsGroup : AbstractRibbonGroup

{

[Action("CountComents", Icon = "trad19_view-evaluation_icon")]

[ActionLayout(typeof(DGTQATButtonsGroup), 1, DisplayType.Large)]

}

When we open a document in review mode, it initially appears correctly:

Our problem is the following:

• On Studio 2021, the ribbon group disappears unless the “Translation results” pane is selected

• On Studio 2024, the ribbon group disappears unless the “Comments” pane is selected:

I don’t see any logical relation between selected results pane and ribbons, but multiple users have experimented this and came to same conclusion.

I also did not find anything in the API doing such a link:

[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Class)]

[ExtensionPointInfo("Ribbon Groups", ExtensionPointBehavior.Static)]

public class RibbonGroupAttribute : AbstractCommandBarItemAttribute

{

public RibbonGroupAttribute(string id);

public RibbonGroupAttribute(string id, string name);

public RibbonGroupAttribute(string id, Type contextByType);

public RibbonGroupAttribute(string id, string name, Type contextByType);

}

[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Class, AllowMultiple = true)]

public sealed class RibbonGroupLayoutAttribute : AbstractLayoutAttribute

{

[EditorBrowsable(EditorBrowsableState.Never)]

public RibbonGroupLayoutAttribute();

public RibbonGroupLayoutAttribute(Type locationType);

}

The only parameter indicating ribbon’s location is “contextByType”, all the samples I saw were using TranslationStudioDefaultRibbonTabs.EditorReviewRibbonTabLocation

I do not see any parameter related to tabs in the editor.

Also the class AbstractRibbonGroup is empty, no parameter to be set without C#’s annotations.

Is there any way to have the ribbon group appearing each time the "Review" part is selected, independently from what is selected in the part which contains translation results or comments?
