Framebarmanagers

[Krijn Michiels]

Hi, The baritems on a childbarmanager''s custom toolbar are not detached when switching to another child form. I guess that all custom toolbars are added to the Mainframebarmanager. Is there a way for adding all the custom toolbars to the active childbarmanager ? Thanks TestFrameBarManagers_5669.zip

Hi Krijin,

I am having difficulty understanding what your requirements are. Do you want the merged bars/items for an MdiChild to be visible even when that child isn''t the active child?

When running the solution you will notice :

1. Open Form1
2. Open Form2
3. Switch between Forms
=> the barmanagers know wich toolbars should be visible or unvisible
4. Activate Form2
5. Customize the toolbars by adding your own and add some Form2 items
6. Switch between Forms
=> when Form1 is activated the newly added toolbar baritems are visible !

This is because all custom toolbars are added to the mainframebarmanager.

I want to add the custom toolbars to the active Childbarmanager (and serialize).

Is this possible ?

Hi Krijin,

Unfortunately, there is no simple solution for this. I suspect you could do something like this, but it would require custom merging logic, custom serialization, and extending classes.

If you''re interested in trying, please create a Direct-Trac incident and I''ll see what we can do.
