Outlook solution folder issues

Hello support,

I followed the following articles in order to embedded a dynamic CRM menu in my outlook add-in:

https://www.add-in-express.com/creating-addins-blog/2010/06/04/office2010-solutions-module/
https://www.add-in-express.com/creating-addins-blog/2012/02/02/outlook-2010-solutions-module/

Everything works as expected. The only issue is the way the solution folder is shown in the navigation bar and its options. The button is shown with a generic add-in icon in compact mode. Also it's reported as "add-ins" and it's grouped with other add-in folders which is really ugly in non-compact mode. The solution folder is setup correctly with a name and an image. Check the screenshots bellow:

Do I miss something?

Hello Alexander,

This is expected. Almost. I tested this several years ago. In those days "Add-ins" was shown only if you have two or more solution modules in Outlook.

Hello Andrei,

so what you're saying is that nothing can be done, right? If so, that's trivial. We can live with that.

Thank you for your support and goodmorning from Bielsko Biala.

Hello Alexander,

You can do nothing about it.

Wow! I'm in Warszawa.
