I have created a docking pane layout and saved using the CXTPDockingPaneLayout::SaveToFile(), which generated an XML file. I thought this would preserve the pane layouts. If I then rearrange/undock/dock panes, I call CXTPDockingPaneLayout::LoadFromFile() but find the original saved layout is not restored.

Should these methods restore a saved layout and preserve docking/floating status?

Thanks,

After LoadFromFile you must call CXTPDocjkingPaneManager::SetLayout

Maybe I am not understanding what this call does. I create my layout of panes and their controls dynamically. I want to preserve the layout of the panes. When I call LoadFromFile(), I simply want to position my existing panes, not create new ones.

Does CXTPDockingPaneLayout::LoadFromFile() create the panes or simply position the existing ones?

Thanks,
