Hello,

I have a Tabbed Toolbar in my application I would like to serialize the Tabbed Toolbar states (docking position and all) into .xml/.ini file. How can I serialize individual commandbars (like Tabbed Toolbars)? here the customization option for the tabbed toolbar is set to false.

But by using:

CXTPPropExchangeXMLNode px(FALSE, 0, _T("Settings"));

if (px.OnBeforeExchange())

{

CXTPPropExchangeSection pxCommandBars(px.GetSection(_T("CommandBars")));

XTP_COMMANDBARS_PROPEXCHANGE_PARAM param; param.bSerializeControls = TRUE; param.bSaveOriginalControls = FALSE;

GetCommandBars()->DoPropExchange(&pxCommandBars, &param);

}

would serliazie all the commandbars into same .xml file but here i want to serialize only one Tabbed Toolbar into different .xml file. Pls suggest

thnks

Hello

I am able to do this by deriving a class from CXTPTabToolBar

and by calling the statements would serialize the tabbed toolbar dockstate.

CXTPPropExchangeXMLNode px(FALSE, 0, _T("IconPaletteSettings"));

if (px.OnBeforeExchange())

{// Save Current Dock Location:

CXTPPropExchangeSection pxIconPalette(px.GetSection(_T("IconPalette")));

this->GetCommandBars()->DoPropExchange(&pxIconPalette);

px.SaveToFile("C:\\TESTFILE.xml");

}

This would serialize the Tabbed Toolbar dock state but now I would like to serialize the contorls state (hidden / showed) present in the Tabbed Toolbar. Any Suggestion on serializing individual or group of controls present on the Toolbar of each Tab in tabbed Toolbar.

You can't serialize only one toolbar's controls. I can't understand why you need this. Make another toolbars not customizable if you don't want to save/restore all states.

hello Oleg,

Thanks for your reply.

Here we have a situation where we are creating a tabbed toolbar on click of file new. Now in this tabbed toolbar we place some buttons. And when we select Add & Remove options and select hide/show (check or uncheck) in the popup bar. Now we want to retain the state of the Tabbed Toolbar and its controls wrt previous state.

Hope you got our requirement.

thnks
