How to: Save a control's layout to a stream

The example below demonstrates a way of saving an active view’s layout (in XtraGrid) to a stream and then restoring it.

System.IO.Stream str;
//...
// Save the layout to a new memory stream.
str = new System.IO.MemoryStream();
gridControl1.FocusedView.SaveLayoutToStream(str);
str.Seek(0, System.IO.SeekOrigin.Begin);

// ...
// Load the saved layout.
gridControl1.FocusedView.RestoreLayoutFromStream(str);
str.Seek(0, System.IO.SeekOrigin.Begin);
