An overhauled fork of the original Custom UI Editor for Microsoft Office, built with WPF
Released automatically from Azure Pipelines
This release adds translations for Dutch, French, German and Turkish. Thanks a lot to all the translators so far!
The .NET versions of the tool now also target .NET 6 instead of .NET 5.
As usual, several bugs have been fixed since last release. For the complete list, see the details at the bottom of this release.
But actually, the reason I generated a release specifically now is because my code signing certificate is about to expire. I am still looking for alternatives, so I decided to produce one final release before it expired, in case the alternatives take too long or don't suit everyone. For more information, see #185.
Download one of the items from the Assets section below. If in doubt, I would recommend using the .NET Framework Installer.
There are two types of downloads available:
.zip file ready to be extracted, with no installation necessary. No entry will be created in the control panel's program listFor each of those download types, the tool comes in three variants:
.zip file / installer, so you won't need to install anything else. As a drawback, the resulting tool is much larger in file sizeDue to some technical limitations, the .NET Framework variants no longer consist of a single .exe file once extracted / installed. Instead, it will contain a collection of DLLs and other auxiliary files too, similarly to other variants.

This release mainly adds support for other languages; you can now select between English, Spanish and Chinese under settings. If you would like to provide a translation for another language, check the README.
The tool is now fully migrated to .NET 5, with self-contained variants available as well.

This release just applies a quick fix to the installers so that they can successfully uninstall previous versions (see #107). The tool itself is unchanged respect to v1.7.0.
For a full list of closed issues since last release, see below.
Download one of the items from the Assets section below.
Compressed .zip files do not require installation (i.e. will not create any
entry in the control panel's program list). When feasible, these will contain
a single .exe file.
The .NET Framework builds require at least version 4.6.1 of the .NET Framework Runtime. The .NET Core builds are still experimental and require at least version 3.0 of the .NET Core Runtime (the one for desktop apps is enough). If you need any of these runtimes, check Microsoft's .NET download page.
Note: As of version 1.6, both the installer and executable are cryptographically signed. In the long therm, this should prevent security warnings in Windows due to untrusted software being executed (see #74). This will not take effect immediately, as it is a reputation system based on the number of downloads. Similarly, when attempting to download the assets, some browsers might show warning messages indicating these are not commonly downloaded, but it is completely safe to do so.

NOTE: If installing on top of version 1.6 or older, uninstall that version manually first. Otherwise, an error will occur preventing you from installing the new version (see #107). This was fixed in v1.7.1.

This release includes all the enhancements non-critical issues that have been addressed over the past months, many of them based on user feedback (thanks everyone!). The most noticeable are:
Edit with OfficeRibbonXEditor context menu entry for Windows Explorer can be set up for relevant file types. This is disabled by default but configurable in Settings.exe installers instead of .msi ones). Thanks to this, an installer will also be available for .NET Core from now onFor a full list of closed issues since last release, see below.

This release focuses on bringing a multi-tab layout to the tool (#58). This allows you to:
Note: in this new tab-based layout, you need to double-click a UI file in the tree view to view its XML contents (instead of single-clicking it as in previous versions).
Binaries for .NET Core 3.0 have also been added. These are experimental and might cause issues due to some libraries not being fully compatible with .NET Core 3.0 yet.
There have been many additional enhancements, bug fixes and stability improvements in general. For a full list of those, see the Changes section below.

The main objective of this minor release is to fix an important bug preventing all context menu actions in the tree view from working (see #52). This bug is only present since release 1.5.
Additionally, the Validate XML action now shows any errors in the same bottom panel where the Find All results are shown.

This release focuses on redesigning the Find / Replace dialog so that it looks more natural when compared to the rest of the tool. This is quite a substantial change; if you find any previous feature missing or any hiccups with the new dialog, just let me know via an issue.
In addition, the is a new panel listing the Find All results, allowing you to navigate to each of them on click (similarly to what Notepad++ or other IDEs do).
There have also been a few minor improvements and bug fixes. For a full list of changes, see below.

A Find / Replace dialog is finally available, as well as a dialog to go to a specific line. These are available from the Edit menu at the top or by using their typical shortcuts (these are shown in the Edit menu too):
Ctrl+F to open the Find dialogCtrl+H to open the Replace dialogCtrl+G to open the Go To dialogShift+F3 to go to the previous find occurrenceF3 to go to the next find occurrenceCtrl+I to do an incremental searchA few bugs are now fixed as well. For a full list of changes, see below.

No relevant changes in functionality. However, this is the first release since the project has been renamed form Custom UI Editor to Office RibbonX Editor. This was done to avoid any confusion with the original tool by Microsoft. I considered this was a big enough change to deserve its own release.
