Remarks
To enable the auto-hide functionality, set the ViewMode property to RibbonViewMode.AutoHide. In auto-hide mode, the ribbon is automatically collapsed (with only its title visible) when it loses focus. The collapsed state is indicated by the ellipsis character at the right side of the ribbon control. To expand a collapsed ribbon, an end-user must click its title.

To control the ribbon’s expansion state
