Inventor 2026 change ribbon tile layout

[frank5838S]

Hello,

I recently updated to Inventor 2026 and the ribbon layout is a lot different compared to 2025 version.

In 2026 the tiles are much more compact and almost all text is removed.

I prefer the old layout but I can't find a way to change it.

It cannot be changed with the Panel buttons and switch with panels, tabs etc.

See screenshots:

Ribbon 1 = 2025 Inventor

Ribbon 2 = 2026 Inventor

Is it possible to change back to the old and more elaborate tiles??

Thanks in advance, Frank

Hi

Please right click on free space on ribbon and change the appearance of the ribbon.
There is no standard ribbon; everyone can customize it to their own preferences.

Thanks. All clear now.

I'm seeing Menu Bar Item changes not staying after closing Inventory 2026.1. Ungrouping Items from the Drop-Down Menu returning back to the default settings. The same with changing the Button Size from small to large returning back to default settings. I've had this issue on two completely different computers.
