TaskFromGroupCategory not wide enough

When I run my add-in (Excel, Word) my TaskFormGroupCategory is not being shown correctly - the TaskFormGroup is too narrow and not the same as other backstage tabs. How do I get the width to be the same.



Here's my tree structure.

Tab
- FirstColumn
-- TaskFormGroup
--- TaskFormGroupCategory
---- TaskFormGroupTask
----- BackStageGroup

Hello Alan,

Please have a look at the sample project discussed in http://www.add-in-express.com/forum/read.php?FID=5&TID=11996&MID=61287.

Is this something you are looking for?

Andrei,

Not really. When you look at a normal backstage tab (e.g Share) in Word 2013, the category group (Share) containing Invite People, Email, Present Online, Post To Blog is reasonably wide.

I created a custom tab, group category, group task etc as mentioned earlier but when I run this, the category group is only about half as wide as on the normal built-in tabs and my text is being truncated. I could send you a picture if you give me your email address.

Regards
Alan
