Topic: LoadCommandBars and StatusBar

Subject: LoadCommandBars and StatusBar

I want to load command bars, (which I consider the Ribbon and the Status Bar), the way I use the DockingPaneLayout.

I have two layouts, when I call SaveCommandBars I can see that it is written to the registry but when I call LoadCommandBars it does not update with what is in the registry. I try to hide the Status Bar in one layout and show it in the other. But it doesn't work.

Any ideas?

Do you have a code sample of how you save and load the commandbars?

Well, I do the following:

CXTPDockingPaneLayout layoutNormal(&m_paneManager);
m_paneManager.GetLayout(&layoutNormal);
layoutNormal.Save(_T("NormalLayout"));
SaveCommandBars(_T("NormalLayout"));

CXTPDockingPaneLayout layoutDatabase(&m_paneManager);
if (layoutDatabase.Load(_T("DatabaseLayout")))
{
m_paneManager.SetLayout(&layoutDatabase);
LoadCommandBars(_T("DatabaseLayout"));
}

and then the reverse.

Try if you first remove all commandbars and then load.

Also with ActiveX Commandbars there is a StateOptions class which holds all the values of how to save the commandbars to xml. The function to use this with is SaveStateToXMLString. But I'm not sure how this works in C++.

Hi,

Also check Samples\UserInterface\GUI_VisualStudio - it shows how to save 2 layouts to XML file

The Layouts for the Docking Panels works just fine. The problem is the CommandBars.

I can only say that I had problems with saving layouts and commandbars too. But if the sample works you just have to do exactly like the example. Small changes can have big unwanted effects. Is there a sample that does what you want to do? Or can you modify a sample so it does what you want it to do? That worked for me.
