WorkspaceManager that is used by specialized bar items cannot be customized

created 10 years ago

I would like to more precisely control what is saved and restored by the WorkSpaceManager. As an example case I have a Ribbonform with a ribbon, a navBar and a few other controls, including an XtraGrid GridControl. The main form has a WorkSpaceManager component, and the ribbon has a BarWorkspaceMenuItem. When things are constructed for presentation I set the TargetControl of the WorkSpaceManager to be the GridControl. However when I save and restore layouts using the BarWorkspaceMenuItem it only affects the ribbon control, not the GridControl at all.

It seems like there is an association between the BarWorkspaceMenuItem and the WorkspaceManager component that I don't understand.

How can I get the BarWorkspaceMenuItem to only save and restore layouts for the GridControl?

    We have fixed the issue described in this ticket and will include the fix in our next maintenance update. To apply this solution before the official update, request a hotfix by clicking the corresponding link for product versions you require.

    Note: Hotfixes may be unavailable for beta versions and updates that are about to be released.

    Additional information:

    Now BarWorkspaceMenuItem has the WorkspaceManager property. So you can use it to fine tune the process of saving a layout.
