Save and Restore a Tabbed MDI Layout

The current layout of your Tabbed MDI application (including tab position and tab groups) can be saved to a storage stream for later recall. You can use this feature to provide the user with a way to save the state of the application between sessions, or to provide customized views of your application as needs dictate.

Note
Note

that saving the layout of the tabbed MDI interface does not persist the forms or any of the data they contain, only their arrangement. If the number of forms in your application changes between the time the layout was saved and the time it was reloaded, those changes will not be reflected in the layout. Your application must ensure that the applications state is the same as it was when the layout was saved in order to exactly restore the Tabbed MDI interface to its previous state.

The StoreTab and RestoreTab events must be implemented in order to properly load and save the tab layout. Refer to the Tab Serialization overview for more information.

To use the ToolClick event of the toolbar to save and load the layout of an WinTabbedMDIManager™.

In Visual Basic:

Imports System.IO
...
Private Sub UltraToolbarsManager1_ToolClick(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
  ByVal e As Infragistics.Win.UltraWinToolbars.ToolClickEventArgs) _
  Handles UltraToolbarsManager1.ToolClick
	If e.Tool.Key = "Load" Then
		' Creates the file stream
		Dim fs As FileStream = Nothing
		Try
			' Finds the specified file
			fs = New FileStream("TabbedMDILayout.dat", FileMode.Open)
			fs.Seek(0, IO.SeekOrigin.Begin)
			' Loads the layout from the file
			Me.UltraTabbedMdiManager1.LoadFromBinary(fs)
		Catch ex As FileNotFoundException
			MessageBox.Show(ex.Message.ToString())
		Finally
			' Closes the file stream
			fs.Close()
		End Try
	ElseIf e.Tool.Key = "Save" Then
		' Creates the file stream
		Dim fs As New FileStream("TabbedMDILayout.dat", FileMode.OpenOrCreate)
		fs.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin)
		' Saves the layout to the file stream
		Me.UltraTabbedMdiManager1.SaveAsBinary(fs)
		' Closes the file stream
		fs.Close()
	End If
End Sub

In C#:

using System.IO;
...
private void ultraToolbarsManager1_ToolClick(object sender,
  Infragistics.Win.UltraWinToolbars.ToolClickEventArgs e)
{
	if(e.Tool.Key == "Load")
	{
		// Creates the file stream
		FileStream fs = null;
		try
		{
			// Finds the specified file
			fs = new FileStream("TabbedMDILayout.dat", FileMode.Open);
			fs.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
			// Loads the layout from the file
			this.ultraTabbedMdiManager1.LoadFromBinary(fs);
		}
		catch (FileNotFoundException ex)
		{
			MessageBox.Show(ex.Message.ToString());
		}
		finally
		{
			// Closes the file stream
			fs.Close();
		}
	}
	else if(e.Tool.Key =="Save")
	{
		// Creates the file stream
		FileStream fs = new FileStream(@"TabbedMDILayout.dat",
		  FileMode.OpenOrCreate);
		fs.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
		// Saves the layout to the file stream
		this.ultraTabbedMdiManager1.SaveAsBinary(fs);
		// Closes the file stream
		fs.Close();
	}
