#Remarks

BackstageViewTabItem objects act as tab pages within a BackstageViewControl. When you select a BackstageViewTabItem within a BackstageViewControl, its contents are displayed in the BackstageViewControl‘s right area.

To specify contents for BackstageViewTabItem objects, add custom controls to the container referred to by the BackstageViewTabItem.ContentControl property. This property is set to a BackstageViewClientControl object.

The following code creates a BackstageViewTabItem and adds a SimpleButton control to the item.

using DevExpress.XtraBars.Ribbon;

BackstageViewTabItem tabItem = new BackstageViewTabItem();
tabItem.Caption = "Export";
SimpleButton btn = new SimpleButton();
btn.Text = "Export";
btn.Location = new Point(10, 10);
tabItem.ContentControl.Controls.Add(btn);
backstageViewControl1.Items.Add(tabItem);
