Remarks
An end-user can customize a RibbonControl at runtime if the RibbonControl.AllowCustomization property is set to true. Customized layouts can also be saved to an XML file or loaded from it. An end-user can do it via the Import/Export button in the Ribbon Customization Window. Use the RibbonControl.RestoreLayoutFromXml and SaveLayoutToXml methods to do it in code.
Failure to save or restore a ribbon layout fires the RibbonControl.InvalidSaveRestoreLayoutException event.
Tip
You can utilize the Persistence Behavior or Workspace Manager component to save and restore layouts for all supported DevExpress controls at once.
