GGC Loading schema falls back to SystemTheme

[Mr. Sascha Wald]

We store and load the schema of a groupinggridControl in a XML, as mentioned in your samples (XML Serialization Demo):

            FileDialog dlg = new OpenFileDialog();
                dlg.Filter = "xml files (*.xml)|*.xml|All files (*.*)|*.*" ;
                if (dlg.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
                {
                        XmlReader xr = new XmlTextReader(dlg.FileName);
                        GridEngine engine = GridEngine.CreateFromXml(xr);
                        if (engine != null)
                                this.gridGroupingControl1.Engine.InitializeFrom(engine);
                        xr.Close();
                }  

 

The problem: in Designer we setup the theme to "Office2007", but when the gridengine gets the xmlschema, it shows the layout of SystemTheme. It can be reproduced by simply deleting the xmlfile, then it is loaded correctly with "Office2007"

Any hint?

Have a nice weekend

Hi Sascha,

 

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion Forums

 

You could resolve this issue by serializing the Grid’s look and feel too. The below codes are an example to serialize the Grid with its look and feel into xml.

 

XmlTextWriter xw = new XmlTextWriter("GridSchema.xml", System.Text.Encoding.UTF8);

            XmlTextWriter xwApp = new XmlTextWriter("GridLooknFeel.xml", System.Text.Encoding.UTF8);

            xw.Formatting = System.Xml.Formatting.Indented;

            this.gridGroupingControl1.WriteXmlSchema(xw);

            this.gridGroupingControl1.WriteXmlLookAndFeel(xwApp);

            xw.Close();

            xwApp.Close();

 

 

XmlReader xr = new XmlTextReader("GridSchema.xml");

                XmlReader xrApp = new XmlTextReader("GridLooknFeel.xml");

                this.gridGroupingControl1.ApplyXmlSchema(xr);

                this.gridGroupingControl1.ApplyXmlLookAndFeel(xrApp);

                xr.Close();

                scd.Format = "{Average:#}";

                xrApp.Close();

 

Here is the sample for you reference.
