:The EiffelRibbon library is not usable directly. The EiffelRibbon design tool allows you to design a ribbon and will generate code that relies on the EiffelRibbon library.
:A class <code>EV_RIBBON_TITLED_WINDOW</code> is provided with the library. <code>EV_RIBBON_TITLED_WINDOW</code> is a descendant of the standard EiffelVision 2 class <code>EV_TITLED_WINDOW</code>. The ribbon classes generated by EiffelRibbon tool can be added only to instances of <code>EV_RIBBON_TITLED_WINDOW</code>.
==Known issues and limitations==
Initial distribution:
* Not all elements shown in the Type selector can actually be used in a design. For the unusable elements, pick-and-drop is disabled.
* Resizing policy is not yet supported.
* It is necessary to freeze the target system each time the EiffelRibbon code is regenerated.
* When using EV_RICH_TEXT within a ribbon, the EV_RICH_TEXT may not be refreshed right after the ribbon has been displayed.
