Actipro Avalonia Controls

Bars

Everything you need to implement advanced Office-like ribbon, toolbar, and menu functionality in your Avalonia applications.

Ribbon Variant Sizing

Ribbon consolidates all commands into a single location, which is easy to use and scales well, thereby providing fast access to all commands regardless of window size. The entire layout of child controls can be tailored to ensure the most important commands are prominently available. Through the use of variant layout phases, you can achieve nearly any dynamic layout that you find in Office.

Ribbon Classic and Simplified Layout Modes

Classic layout mode uses a taller ribbon with a combination of large buttons and multi-row groups of controls and is ideal for large applications with lots of commands. Whereas Simplified layout mode is a modern refinement that uses a single row of controls and supports overflow. Ribbon can instantly toggle between the two modes.

Color Galleries

Show color palettes using the many available gallery display options. Colors can be categorized, and color shades can be generated.

Other Galleries

Galleries can appear on ribbons or menus, and can custom render items to show anything from bullets or symbols to text styles.

Screen Tips

Screen tips are advanced tool tips with a standardized layout for bar controls, and intelligently display below the ribbon.

Key Tips

Key tips provide easy keyboard access to any control on the ribbon or in its popups, even on backstage.

Backstage

The ribbon File button's backstage consists of application-wide commands such as for file operations and other functionality like printing.

UI Density

The user interface can switch between compact (seen here), normal, and spacious densities. Spacious densities are more touch friendly.

Standalone Toolbars

A standalone toolbar control is flexible enough to be used in several contexts and can host any of the galleries or controls that are used in a ribbon. Overflowed controls display in a popup.

Complete MVVM Support

Optionally create the entire ribbon user interface via MVVM. An open-source companion MVVM library is available that provides a full set of view models and related UI bindings for all bar controls.

Fundamentals

Professionally-developed controls and components for building high-quality Avalonia apps.

Application Settings

Most applications contain a view where end users can configure settings. Actipro provides several controls for displaying grouped and optionally expandable card-based editors for settings that are presented in a consistent, easy-to-use way.

User Prompt

Makes it easy to build traditional messagebox or more advanced task dialog functionality using many configurable settings. Optional header, footer, and checkbox sections are all supported.

Avatar and Badge

Avatar renders an image, glyph, initials or text to represent a person. Display many avatars in an overflowable avatar group. Badge adornments can display status dots, numeric counts, or text over any target element.

Card

Presents visually grouped information for a single subject, using optional cover, thumbnail, header, and footer sections.

Segmented Bar

Allows a user to select a single item with support for fluent animations when changing selection.

Circular Progress Bar

Displays a ranged progress value using fluent animations, and can dynamically change to an indeterminate state when no progress range is established.

Info Bar

Displays essential information to a user without disrupting the user flow. Messages can display with optional severity, action, and more.

User Interface Density

Actipro themes supports multiple UI density options that describe how tightly controls are packed together: Spacious (most touch-friendly), Normal (balanced), and Compact (maximizes screen real estate). All XAML can make use of Actipro's theme resources and special XAML markup extensions to auto-adjust the app's UI appearance based on the current UI density level.
