WorkspaceManager Members
Manages layouts of all DevExpress controls in the application as one global workspace. Workspaces can be saved and restored to (from) a local storage or stream.Constructors
Name | Description |
---|---|
WorkspaceManager() | Initializes a new instance of the WorkspaceManager class with the default settings. |
WorkspaceManager(IContainer) | Initializes a new instance of the WorkspaceManager class with the specified settings. |
Properties
Name | Description |
---|---|
AllowTransitionAnimation | Gets or sets whether or not changing workspaces within this WorkspaceManager should be followed by animation effects. |
CanRaiseEvents protected | Gets a value indicating whether the component can raise an event. Inherited from Component. |
CloseStreamOnWorkspaceLoading | Gets or sets whether this WorkspaceManager should automatically close streams opened when loading workspaces. |
CloseStreamOnWorkspaceSaving | Gets or sets whether this WorkspaceManager should automatically close streams opened when saving workspaces. |
Container | Gets the IContainer that contains the Component. Inherited from Component. |
DesignMode protected | Gets a value that indicates whether the Component is currently in design mode. Inherited from Component. |
Events protected | Gets the list of event handlers that are attached to this Component. Inherited from Component. |
RecentWorkspaces | Provides access to the recently used workspaces collection. |
SaveTargetControlSettings | Gets or sets whether the WorkspaceManager should store settings like “Bounds” or “State” for the form assigned to the WorkspaceManager.TargetControl property. |

Site | Gets or sets the ISite of the Component. Inherited from Component. |
TargetControl | Gets or sets a control whose layout is managed by this WorkspaceManager. |
ThrowOnWorkspaceError | Gets or sets whether the application should throw the XmlException when a user attempts to apply a corrupt workspace. Regardless of this setting, the Workspace Manager also fires the WorkspaceError event that notifies you about the issue. |
TransitionType | Gets or sets the transition animation that follows applying workspaces. |
Workspaces | Provides access to all currently active workspaces. |

Events
Name | Description |
---|---|
AfterApplyWorkspace | Occurs after a workspace was applied. |
