Remarks

The ribbon can display a search box that allows users to search for bar items by their caption or custom keywords.

To display the search box, set the ShowSearchItem property to true. See Search Menu for more information.

Note

In an MDI application, a child form’s search box is not added to the parent form when ribbons are merged. You should enable the search box on the parent and child forms individually.
