My tailormade Ribbon XML failed to load in parts or completely.

There can be various reasons.

1. Ribbon Creator can only process XML files generated by Ribbon Creator.

   
   

   • Ribbon Creator uses pre-fixes to display controls.
     

   btn = Button
   tgb = ToggleButton
   lbl = Label
   cbx = Checkbox
   ddc = DropdownControl
   sep = Separator
   ebx = EditBox
   gbt = ButtonGroups
   mnu = Menu Control
   sbt = SplitButton
   gal = Gallery
   cmb = ComboBox
   dym = DynamicMenu

   • The "Tag" attribute is used to load information (user-defined pictures, defaults).

   • There are "<- Comments lines ->" used to finish controls / control groups which have to remain present.
     

   
   

2. Ribbon XML must be well-formed. (Try to open the file using Internet Explorer.)
