Outlook 2016 backstage customization

Question

Buttons have been changes to Tabs in backstage in many cases in Office 2016 products comparing with Office 2010.

I am developing Add-in, which currently works for Outlook 2010.

I am adding two buttons to backstage. Please note following attribute [ insertAfterQ="SaveAttachments" ] , I use it as an anchor to place my custom buttons precisely.

Will it still work in Outlook 2016 backstage? Or value has been changed/renamed?

Where can I find a specification for full list of the backstage buttons/tabs of Outlook 2016?

 <backstage>
    <button id="btnMyCompanySaveAttachments" visible="true" getLabel="GetLabel" insertAfterQ="SaveAttachments" onAction="actionEWorking"  getEnabled="getEnabled" getImage="GetButtonImage"  />
    <button id="btnMyCompanySave" visible="true" getLabel="GetLabel" onAction="actionEWorking" insertAfterQ="SaveAttachments" getEnabled="getEnabled" getImage="GetButtonImage"  />   
  </backstage>

Hi,

This forum is for general questions and feedback related to Microsoft Office. Since your question is more related to Outlook development, I'll move this thread to the Outlook for Developers forum:

The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.
