Initially hidden ribbon tab in Word

Hi,

I would like to have my ribbon tab to perform in a similar way to the Developer tools ribbon tab, i.e. that is initially not enabled and the user can only change this through Options -> Customize Ribbon dialog. My ribbon tab's visibility in the ribbon can be controlled simply in this dialog, but its initial state is enabled/visible in the ribbon.

If it is possible to have the initial state disabled, and if so, how can I do this in C#?

Many thanks

Hello,

I created a Ribbon tab having its Visible property set to true. In the host application, such a tab is checked. I think this way isn't available for a Ribbon tab created using a COM add-in.
