Topic: QuickAccessToolbar Save and Load [Solved]

I can't find any examples on how to save and load the controls in the QuickAccessToolbar.

I managed to save and load the using the code below.

Right after adding a new control to the QuickAccessToolbar using the CXTPRibbonCustomizeQuickAccessPage everyting works.

The problem is that after saving and loading the QuickAccesControls they appear correct in the QuickAccessToolbar, but the controls are not working?

void CMainWindow::LoadQuickAccessControls()
{
	CXTPRibbonBar* pRibbonBar = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CXTPRibbonBar, GetCommandBars()->GetMenuBar());
	if (pRibbonBar == NULL) return;
	CXTPRibbonQuickAccessControls *pQA = pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls();
	if (pQA == NULL) return;
	XTP_COMMANDBARS_PROPEXCHANGE_PARAM param;
	param.pCommandBars = GetCommandBars();
	param.bSaveOriginalControls = FALSE;
	param.bSerializeControls = TRUE;
	param.bSerializeActions = TRUE;
	param.bSerializeLayout = FALSE;
	param.bSerializeOptions = FALSE;

	HKEY hKey = NULL;
	if (::RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, _T("Software\\My Company\\My App"), 0, KEY_READ, &hKey) != ERROR_SUCCESS)
		return;
	CXTPPropExchangeRegistry px(TRUE, hKey, _T("QuickAccessLayout"));
	px.m_dwData = DWORD_PTR(&param);
	pQA->DoPropExchange(&px);
	::RegCloseKey(hKey);
}
void CMainWindow::SaveQuickAccessControls()
{
	CXTPRibbonBar* pRibbonBar = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CXTPRibbonBar, GetCommandBars()->GetMenuBar());
	if (pRibbonBar == NULL) return;
	CXTPRibbonQuickAccessControls *pQA = pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls();
	if (pQA == NULL) return;
	XTP_COMMANDBARS_PROPEXCHANGE_PARAM param;
	param.bSaveOriginalControls = FALSE;
	param.bSerializeControls = TRUE;
	param.bSerializeActions = TRUE;
	param.bSerializeLayout = FALSE;
	param.bSerializeOptions = FALSE;

	HKEY hKey = NULL;
	if (::RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, _T("Software\\My Company\\My App"), 0, KEY_WRITE, &hKey) != ERROR_SUCCESS)
		return;
	CXTPPropExchangeRegistry px(FALSE, hKey, _T("QuickAccessLayout"));
	px.m_dwData = DWORD_PTR(&param);
	pQA->DoPropExchange(&px);
	::RegCloseKey(hKey);
}

This fails:

XTPCommandBar.cpp line 653:

if (!pControl->OnSetPopup(TRUE))

Since m_pCommandBar is NULL in XTPControlPopup.cpp line 295:

if (!m_pCommandBar)

Please help.

Maybe a good idea to add these methods to the Codejock Ribbon MDI Sample for others to use??

void CMainFrame::LoadQuickAccessControls()
{
  CXTPRibbonBar* pRibbonBar = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CXTPRibbonBar, 
          GetCommandBars()->GetMenuBar());
  if (pRibbonBar == NULL) return;
  CXTPRibbonQuickAccessControls *pQA = pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls();
  if (pQA == NULL) return;

  XTP_COMMANDBARS_PROPEXCHANGE_PARAM param;
  param.pCommandBars = GetCommandBars();
  param.bSaveOnlyCustomized = FALSE;
  param.bLoadSilent = TRUE;
  param.bSaveOriginalControls = TRUE;
  param.bSerializeActions = TRUE;
  param.bSerializeControls = TRUE;
  param.bSerializeDesignerControls = TRUE;
  param.bSerializeImages = FALSE;
  param.bSerializeLayout = TRUE;
  param.bSerializeOptions = TRUE;

  HKEY hKey = NULL;
  if (::RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, _T("Software\\Codejock Software Sample Applications
          \\Codejock Ribbon MDI Sample"), 0, KEY_READ, &hKey) != ERROR_SUCCESS)
  {
    pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls()->Reset();
    return;
  }
  ::RegCloseKey(hKey);

  if (::RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, _T("Software\\Codejock Software Sample Applications
          \\Codejock Ribbon MDI Sample"), 0, KEY_READ, &hKey) != ERROR_SUCCESS)
    return;

  pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls()->RemoveAll();

  CXTPPropExchangeRegistry px(TRUE, hKey, _T("QuickAccessLayout"));
  px.m_dwData = DWORD_PTR(&param);
  pQA->DoPropExchange(&px);
  ::RegCloseKey(hKey);
}
void CMainFrame::SaveQuickAccessControls()
{
  CXTPRibbonBar* pRibbonBar = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CXTPRibbonBar, 
          GetCommandBars()->GetMenuBar());
  if (pRibbonBar == NULL) return;
  CXTPRibbonQuickAccessControls *pQA = pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls();
  if (pQA == NULL) return;

  XTP_COMMANDBARS_PROPEXCHANGE_PARAM param;
  param.pCommandBars = NULL;// GetCommandBars();
  param.bSaveOnlyCustomized = FALSE;
  param.bLoadSilent = TRUE;
  param.bSaveOriginalControls = FALSE;
  param.bSerializeActions = TRUE;
  param.bSerializeControls = TRUE;
  param.bSerializeDesignerControls = TRUE;
  param.bSerializeImages = FALSE;
  param.bSerializeLayout = TRUE;
  param.bSerializeOptions = TRUE;

  HKEY hKey = NULL;
  if (::RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, _T("Software\\Codejock Software Sample Applications
          \\Codejock Ribbon MDI Sample"), 0, KEY_WRITE, &hKey) != ERROR_SUCCESS)
    return;
  CXTPPropExchangeRegistry px(FALSE, hKey, _T("QuickAccessLayout"));
  px.m_dwData = DWORD_PTR(&param);
  pQA->DoPropExchange(&px);
  ::RegCloseKey(hKey);
}

A question, why would you need to load/save Quick Access controls using separate functions?

I just create the ribbon bar including the QAT, and then call LoadCommandBars(L"MySection", TRUE); and all previous customizations are then loaded.
