Merge Ribbon title with RibbonWindow Title

Question

How do I merge the RibbonWindow title with the Ribbon title? I want the RibbonWindow's ApplicationMenu to be on top of the window (kinda like Firefox). I'd also like to change the text on the ApplicationMenu, the Label property doesn't seem to work.

Hi Hameer Abbasi,

First question:

we could not merge the Window border part(win32) with the WPF ribbon part(WPF part), if you have to achieve this behavior, you have to remove the Window border, change RibbonWindow to normal Window, and then set the WindowStyle="None".

Second question:

you could use DrawingImage:

<ribbon:RibbonApplicationMenu.SmallImageSource>
    <DrawingImage>
        <DrawingImage.Drawing>
            <GlyphRunDrawing ForegroundBrush="White">
                <GlyphRunDrawing.GlyphRun>
                    <GlyphRun
        CaretStops="{x:Null}" 
        ClusterMap="{x:Null}" 
        IsSideways="False" 
        GlyphOffsets="{x:Null}" 
        GlyphIndices="41 76 79 72" 
        FontRenderingEmSize="12" 
        DeviceFontName="{x:Null}" 
        AdvanceWidths="5.859375 2.90625 2.90625 6.275390625">
                        <GlyphRun.GlyphTypeface>
                            <GlyphTypeface FontUri="C:\WINDOWS\Fonts\SEGOEUI.TTF"/>
                        </GlyphRun.GlyphTypeface>
                    </GlyphRun>
                </GlyphRunDrawing.GlyphRun>
            </GlyphRunDrawing>
        </DrawingImage.Drawing>
    </DrawingImage>
</ribbon:RibbonApplicationMenu.SmallImageSource>

Best regards,
