How to insert control groups under 1 custom tab at runtime/during initialization from the separate addins?

In my project, I need to create check boxes dynamically that turn on/off groups (buttons) from separate addins.

I was able to create check boxes by using Custom Categories

Components = Categories.GetComponentElements("NRMCustomCategory"); //Then reading the states from other addins foreach (ComponentElement component in Components) { string toolState = component.ReadAttribute("tool_state"); string toolName = component.ReadAttribute("tool_name"); string checkBoxName = toolName.Replace(" ", ""); //.... }

Now, my checkboxes turn/on of the groups/controls but in their own tab. I would like to get them together under one tab I created for the main addin. I thought if I can read/write all DAML files during the initialazation I can put them altogether using something like this

from my search I found these but I am not sure how to use these or if I am on the right path

My colleague helped me to solve the problem. I was trying work it out from the main addin. Basically, I use

on the dependent addin which solved the problem
