RibbonControlAdv SaveState() / LoadState() not working.

[Jonathan Leger]

Hi,

In the FormClosing event of my RibbonForm I cam calling the SaveState() method of my RibbonControlAdv control.

In the Load() event I'm calling the LoadState() method of my RibbonControlAdv control.

The problem is that the items I selected and put into the Quick Access Menu are not being persisted. They aren't being reloaded when I call LoadState().

I found a sample project here:

http://files.syncfusion.com/support/tools.windows/kb_samples/tools_wf_ribbon_persistence.zip

From what I can see, all it's doing is calling SaveState() and LoadState() -- and the sample works fine! But when I do the same thing in my project, I get no joy.

Any ideas?

Jon

Okay, just as some added information: it DOES reload the quick access items if I call LoadState() while the application is still running -- but it does not load them if I close the application and then call LoadState() after running the app again.

The sample code persists the state in between runs.

Okay, more information: when I check the Application Data / IsolatedStorage folder, the demo application created a SyncfusionToolsStateInfo.bin file -- my application created nothing.

So clearly it's not writing the data (or can't, or something) -- but I have no idea how to correct this as I'm not doing anything special with it at all.

Well, I was able to work around the problem by using a custom serializer and writing the data to an XML file, but I still haven't figured out why the default IsolatedStorage won't work.

Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for your interest in Syncfusion product.

You can achieve your requirement by using RibbonControlAdv’s loadState and SaveState methods with in the Form’s Load and closing events respectively. For more information I have included the sample as follows
