Resetting toolbar positions for MSI children

[Paul Wardle]

Is it possible to reset the toolbar positions for MDI child windows?

Hi Paul, There is no direct way of resetting the childform bar positions, as the MainFrameBarManager alone has the LoadDesignerBarState method which is used to reset the bar postions in the mainform. One way is, you can save the bar state in the form_load event using AppStateSerializer for resetting it later.

private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
	// Child Form
	Form2 frm= new Form2();
	frm.MdiParent = this;
	frm.Show();

	// Save the BarState using AppStateSerializer 
	AppStateSerializer app = new AppStateSerializer(SerializeMode.XMLFile, "..\\..\\ResetStatePersist");
	this.mainFrameBarManager1.SaveBarState(app);
	app.PersistNow();
}

private void ResetButton_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
	AppStateSerializer app = new AppStateSerializer(SerializeMode.XMLFile, "..\\..\\ResetStatePersist");
	this.mainFrameBarManager1.LoadBarState(app);
}

I have attached a sample that shows this completely. Change the position of the toolBars and click the "Reset" button to reset(load state) the Bar positions. Please let me know if this helps you. Thanks for using Syncfusion products. Regards, Mano Resetbarpostions_F41970.zip
