Ribbon tabs
You can use ribbon tabs to provide users with a custom user interface on the ribbon in the Excel Client or the Windows Client. For an overview of how the Axiom user interface can be customized, see About custom task panes and ribbon tabs.
The ribbon is the name of the multi-tabbed toolbar area across the top of the Axiom Software application. In the Excel Client this area includes the full Excel ribbon. You might also think of this area as the Axiom Software menu.

This section explains how to create, edit, and delete custom ribbon tabs, and then assign them to end users. Ribbon tabs are managed using the Ribbon Tabs Library within Axiom Explorer. Ribbon tab files display using the ribbon icon .
In addition to creating your own custom ribbon tabs, you can customize the built-in ribbon tabs provided by Axiom Software—the main Axiom ribbon tab and the Axiom Designer ribbon tab. For more information, see Built-in task panes and ribbon tabs.
