I need to show some custom content in the Ribbon bar that is not a button.
My question is if it's possible to show something that is not a button, and show instead some values that I need to set on load.
Thanks!
I believe that is not supported out of the box feature neither possible with CRM 2011 Visual Ribbon Editor.
But you can still make it with unsupported ribbon changes on XML and Onload javascript function. How to Edit ribbon.

add combobox with OfficeJS
Combo boxes are not supported in OfficeJS for ribbon customizations. Supported control types are:
Simple buttons - trigger specific actions.
Menus - simple menu dropdown with buttons that trigger actions.
Read more about ribbon customizations in the Add-in commands for Excel, PowerPoint, and Word article.
But you may consider creating a task pane with any controls. There are not limitations on the controls used for task panes (unlike ribbon).

I am new to CRM and I have an exiting ribbon button. I want to disable it on condition (Field1 is null or not).
So far, I have created an new solution and included the required entity.
Exported the solution and tried to change the configuration.xml.
I have tried to make change under . But without any luck.
Can anyone help me out with an example.
Thanks in advance.
Don't edit it by hand. Use The Visual Ribbon Editor Tool. Makes things much nicer to deal with than hand editing the xml.
If you want to setup a button to be enabled if new_field1 (capitalization matters so make sure it's correct with what your field's actual name is) is not null, here is what you would do:
Open up the ribbon editor
Conenct to your org
Select your entity with the ribbon button you want to enable/disable
Click on your button
Click the Enable Rules tab
Enter the field name exactly as it appears in the customization section of your solution within CRM in the Field text box.
Enter "null" (without the quotes) for the value. Lower case.
Skip Default (if you have some custom forms where the field does not exist, you may want to give it a default value)
Change Invert Result to true.
Click the "Save" button at the very top. (don't click the save button on the main tab of the ribbon)
Verify that it is getting deployed and published.
Test it out.
Edit: Use Ribbon Workbench For System Ribbons
I've never used it, but the Ribbon Workbench says it can customize system buttons.
For contacts entity i have 3 custom views(view 1,view 2,view 3), i want to show a ribbon button in homepage grid only when we selecting a view 3.Is it possible in MS CRM 2011 ?
Maybe you can try with creating custom JavaScript 'Enable rule' for your ribbon button. Example here. Create new JS webresource with one function where you will check is specific View is selected.
If ribbon button MUST be hidden, just hide it after checking which View is selected. In this case, I think that this is possible only with modifying the DOM.
Hope it helps!
I have a custom application page in SharePoint 2010 created in VS 2010.
There are a few custom button controls in the Ribbon on this page.
This Ribbon control is implemented using SPRibbon api's.
There is a SPGridView on the page that is bound to a datasource.
What i want to achieve is enable/disable and show dialog window that is context sensitive that is when an item is selected on the SPGrid, the buton should be enabled/disabled. Also, after selection, and clicking on one button, a dialog window should open up with item id passed to this page.
Thanks...
