/**
    @class wxRibbonControl

    wxRibbonControl serves as a base class for all controls which share the
    ribbon characteristics of having a ribbon art provider, and (optionally)
    non-continuous resizing. Despite what the name may imply, it is not the
    top-level control for creating a ribbon interface - that is wxRibbonBar.

    Ribbon controls often have a region which is "transparent", and shows the
    contents of the ribbon page or panel behind it. If implementing a new
    ribbon control, then it may be useful to realise that this effect is done
    by the art provider when painting the background of the control, and hence
    in the paint handler for the new control, you should call a draw background
    method on the art provider (wxRibbonArtProvider::DrawButtonBarBackground()
    and wxRibbonArtProvider::DrawToolBarBackground() typically just redraw what
    is behind the rectangle being painted) if you want transparent regions.
