When creating an Add-in with C# .NET with the followin code:
commandBar = Application.CommandBars["Standard"];
newButton = (Office.CommandBarButton)commandBar.Controls.Add(Office.MsoControlType.msoControlButton, missing, missing, missing, true);
The button added shows in the Add-In section from the ribbon.
I would like to know if there is any chance to change the position of the button from Add-ins to CustomName tab or any other of my choice?
In this case CustomName has been added with the default feature of creating new tabs that can be found in File -> Options -> Customize Ribbon
Any help provided would be extremely helpful, thanks!
Sorry, there isn't. Application.CommandBars was deprecated over 15 years ago, and the Add-ins tab is a workaround for backward compatibility. You should be using RibbonUI to modify the ribbon with a Custom tab and adding your commands to that. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/vsto/walkthrough-creating-a-custom-tab-by-using-ribbon-xml?view=vs-2022&tabs=csharp
