Why do you think the ribbon API hasn't been utilised much since 2007?

[Elliot B.]

Aside from Microsoft programs, the API hasn't had much use.

 

This topic was triggered by me seeing how many options are in the menus within Adobe Photoshop 2020.

 

The Edit menu alone has 30 or so options, many with sub-options.

 

 

With Photoshop, it may be workflow-related.

 

Still, it's a shame more programs didn't adopt it.
