How save items using DockingManager control - Visual Basic

[Igor]

Hello everyone

How save the state of my project using DockingManager control?

I tried to save and load  the project using:

Me.dockingManager1.SaveDockState (Serializer) - Close Button

Me.dockingManager1.LoadDockState (serializer); - button "Carregar"

but is not working

How can save the position of the elements and whenever the user enters  in program, the elements (panel and form) will be in the same position.

Hi Igor, 

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support. 

We have checked your query “Load and Save does not work in DockingManager”. In your sample you are adding panels to DockingManager children collection during runtime by button click. So when the application is closed, the panels in DockingManager children collection are cleared. Therefore when you load the saved file after re-opening the application , it has the saved information of panels regarding position, height etc.. but it won’t add panels in  DockingManager children collection. Please load the saved file after adding panels in DockingManager, and it works properly. Please refer the below video for the same.

Hi Igor, 

Thanks for your update. 

To control the form size inside the panel set the Dock properties value of forms to Fill value. Therefore the forms size are updated when the panel re-sizes. Please refer the below code snippet for the same. If your requirement differs please let us know. 

C#: 

form1.Dock = DockStyle.Fill
