Hello,

Here is my scenario:

A default layout string is saved into the application's resources.
When the application starts I get the string into a variable and call the following line:

DockingPane.LoadStateFromString sTmp

then I call:

DockingPane.LoadState "MySettings", App.Title, "MainWindow"

so that the user saved state takes over the default layout. Everything worked fine until my customer asked for a menu option as to restore the default layout. Here is where the problem occurs!

Calling LoadStateFromString again would NOT change the layout, while LoadState DOES, obviously reverting the layout to the last saved.

Please note that I use AttachPane for populating my docking manager and all my panes have an ID > 0.

Any help, please ?

Hi,

Actually it shold work.

Here sample that I tried that works for me:

Dim s As String

Private Sub Command1_Click()
DockingPane.LoadStateFromString s
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()
DockingPane.CreatePane 1, 100, 100, DockLeftOf

s = DockingPane.SaveStateToString
End Sub
