I've just updated to Visio 2010 and I need to customize the ribbon so that we get similar menu items to how things were in Visio 2003 & 2007. Despite what the documentation says, Visio 2010 didn't seem to do a great job of "upgrading" our add-ons to the ribbon. Some are shown on the Add-Ins menu, some are in View/Add-Ons, but even then the long list on the sub-menu is only a subset of them all - I have to select Run Add-On to get the full list and it's not very user friendly!
Anyway, googling for help & advice led me here...
Currently, the UI (menu & toolbar) is customised using a Custom User Interface file (.vsu) and the add-on code is all in a Visio Library (.vsl) and is written in C++. I want to be able to create tabs & groups so that I can call each add-on via its own button or command. Using the .vsu file, I could specify to call the add-on by name, but I'm not sure how I can do this using the options available for the new Ribbon.
Is there a simple way to do this without resorting to re-writing a load of stuff? Thanks for your help!
