Remarks

By default, the RibbonControl does not draw Ribbon Page Group captions in the OfficeUniversal and TabletOffice styles (see RibbonControl.RibbonStyle). In other styles, page group captions are displayed.

To always draw Ribbon Page Group captions, enable the DrawGroupCaptions option:

Draw Group Captions - WinForms Ribbon Control, DevExpress

ribbonControl1.DrawGroupCaptions = DevExpress.Utils.DefaultBoolean.True;

Disable the DrawGroupsBorderMode option to hide group captions:

Hide Group Captions - WinForms Ribbon Control, DevExpress

ribbonControl1.DrawGroupCaptions = DevExpress.Utils.DefaultBoolean.False;

Note

The DrawGroupCaptions property is in effect only if the RibbonControl.DrawGroupsBorderMode option is enabled. If the DrawGroupsBorderMode option is disabled, page group captions are not displayed regardless of the DrawGroupCaptions property’s value.
