Controlling the display of the Ribbon Menu from command prompt

[andy.millard]

is there a way to controll the display of the ribbon menu with the command prompt? The way it displays as either panels showing or just the panel title, etc....Is there a system variable for this maybe?

I don't think so.
This sort of agrees with me....

However, I'll keep watching this thread to see if someone comes up with something....

At the command prompt, try typing: ribbonclose
The ribbon disappears. To get it back, type: ribbon
I suppose you could do it in Lisp: (command "ribbonclose"), etc.

I am not aware of a way to control the "way it displays", in other words, the visible panels, etc., from the command prompt.

Am I missing what you are asking?
