ComboBox problem in custom ribbon

[Paul_Hossler]

Just experimenting, but if there is a manual style change made outside the combobox, the combobox is not updated and <Enter> in the combobox has no effect.

Personally, I really don't see any difference between picking a style from the combobox or from the style pane.

If it were me, I'd add my own new tab with multiple groups. Each group has a category of style to be applied using a button

As example, this is the tab I created for applying APA format styles to the current paragraph (plus some other APA-related features). In this, the [APA Styles] group has most of the styles, but you could create groups for the different categories: Text, Lists, Footnotes, Bibiliography, etc.)

The most common styles using large buttons, and the occasional ones using normal

If you really need all those styles, then maybe two tabs with the 'once in a while' category ones on a second tab would make it a little more user friendly
