How to share button constructor custom ribbon with others?

@JelteDeJong I have used your button constructor and it works fine to add my ilogic code as buttons in the ribbon. However I would like share this ribbon with several other people on different computers. Can you explain how you can do it? 

 

Best regards Andreas

There is a settings file with all information on your buttons. You need to copy that file to the computer of the people you want to share your buttons with. (It is not possible to put this file in a centralized place. It needs to be in the same directory as your addin files.) Depending on how your addin is installed it can be in several places.

Have a look at the Help page on my site. In the chapter "Settings file for the addin." you will find instructions to find the settings file. You should be looking for the file: "RuleButtonSettings.Xml". That is the file that you need to copy.

Use the installer on all computers and overwrite the original settings file with the one you found.
