Item

Items are contained in a group‘s MVCxRibbonGroup.Items collection. An action on the Item (for example, a button click or an editor value change) raises the ASPxClientRibbon.CommandExecuted event.

ASPxRibbon_Items

An item’s size can be small or large. Large items can be displayed in a small size when a ribbon has insufficient space to display all its items, provided that the small item images or text are specified.
