What's the proper name for the "flyout" thing on the RIBBON?

[DaVinney]

I'm doing some ribbon customizing and I'd like to know more about the "flyout" capability. It's the tiny arrow in the very lower-right corner of some ribbon groups (Word2007/10). It appears on the Font group (Home tab) for example. See it on attached image.

I can't research it because I don't even know what it's called.

Flyout?
Flyout anchor?
Dialog box pointer?
Wormhole?

The actual button is called a dialog launcher, I believe.

What appears when you hover is the combination of a screen tip and a super tip.

Yep, that's it. Now I'm getting some hits.

dialogBoxLauncher Element

Launches dialog boxes and can launch a userform.


Thanks
