Hi Friends can any one tell me how to get the control id for the controls in the ribbon bar for sharepoint 2010 so that I can enable or disable them.
I would try either FireBug or TEMPLATE\GLOBAL\XML\CMDUI.XML in the 14 hive.
When u create custom ribbon you have ID attribute in Button tag.
<Button Id="Ribbon.yourid">
so give it id you wan't to like and find tag using jquery
$("[id^='Ribbon.yourid']")

I am trying to add a Print Item button to the Forms (New, Edit, Display) of items in a Custom List. In order to achieve this I am using the following microsoft article https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/office/developer/sharepoint-2010/hh500259(v%3Doffice.14).
I follow the steps, however the Button is not displayed. Attaching Screenshots of how it is set on Sharepoint designer as reference
Do you have any ideas of what can be happening? Is there another way to add a print button the the Items Ribbon?
The button would not be added to the Items ribbon. In fact, the button is added to the drop down menu of the list item, as the below picture shows:
I want to create a global button for all the entities.
I tried the following:
Created a sample solution with entity Application Ribbon
Opened the Application Ribbon Entity in Ribbon Workbench
Under Command Bar -> Home . Placed a button besides New Record
However after publish I am not able to view the button.
How do I resolve this?
The answer is from Mithilesh Kumar, and can be found on this page:

You need to find the Group where you want to show the Button.
If you want to show on the Home Page for all Entity, find the Group as below and place the Button in this Group.
If you want to show in the Forms of all Entity, you need to place in the Group in the Form Area, shown below
Hope that clarifies
Modifying the XML you need to rely on the {!EntityLogicalName} keyword inside the location.

I have an inspector in Outlook 2010 that contains a button that was placed in the Show group in the ribbon. The inspector current item is an appointment item. The form that this button originally belonged to no longer exists but, the button remains in the Show group and there is no documentation on this button. Is there a way to list all of the buttons by ID that are in the current ribbon? I'm looking to find the ID of this button so I can set enabled to false in my XML but, have had no luck thus far.
EDIT: To be a little more precise, I'm looking to loop through all of the elements in the ribbon in Outlook so I can find the correct ID of a button I want to remove from it. I'm using C#, .NET 4.0 and VSTO for the add-in.
Answering this myself in case anyone needs it.
You can use HideFormPage("Button Name") to hide the orphaned button placed in the ribbon by a custom form. There is no need to loop through the ribbon and find it.
Application.ActiveInspector.HideFormPage("Button Name");
Am I missing something or did Microsoft remove the capability to select a particular record in a Subgrid in CRM 2013?
In 2011 selecting a record in a subgrid would change the context of the ribbon buttons to the entity that the subgrid was displaying. Also, when a custom button was clicked on the form, we had access to primaryEntityTypeName, primaryEntity, selectedEntities in the event handler.
This was a really useful feature. Does anyone know if it can be enabled somehow?
You may refer to this post. As you can see it 3-rd point from now there is no ribbon bar for subgrid as it was before, there are only 2 buttons on top of it: Add New and Open Associated Sub Grid. There is no way to change this.
Don't know if it will work out for yours situation but you may use Associated Views like in this post.
I have a dynamic list of values that I want the user to select from, how is it possible to do it with VSTO ? Would it be possible to prompt a listbox (as a MessageBox ?) and retrieve the selected item ? Or could I add a listbox in the Ribbon ?
Thank you for your help
Have you tried to add DropDown/ComboBox control to ribbon bar?
Alternatively, perhaps you could create a custom windows form and place the control on it. Then attach that form to an event, add-in start, button click, etc.
