Hi
Thank you for your answers.
Ian, good point for you, I forgot Flamingo which is really a fantastic library (I forgot it because I did not wok with Swing since years)
My idea was to investigate some existing projects
in order to create the model.
What do you think ?
Laurent
There is already an Open Source ribbon control that models the Microsoft Ribbon - it's in the Flamingo UI Library:
It's Swing only, but some of the logic that controls how items/panels are hidden as the panel resizes may be of value, see some screenshots here:

Hi Laurent,
That is great news! Do you think we should contact Microsoft to know if we can reverse engineer the ribbbon? Maybe the EMO (in cc) is able to advise us.
We are talking about recreating the Microsoft Ribbon which is attached in a picture.
Cheers,
Wim

Well I've checked RWT and the source code has not been published.
So I've decided to start to work on this feature. Do you know any "flat icon" library that can be included in a EPL project ?
