Property Value

Type	Default	Description
DefaultBoolean	Default	A value that specifies whether to store and restore the “enabled” states of layout items.

Available values:

Name	Description
True	true. DefaultBoolean.True has a constant value of 0, while the standard true value corresponds to a value of 1. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
False	false. DefaultBoolean.False has a constant value of 1, while the standard false value corresponds to a value of 0. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
Default	The default behavior determined by the control’s logic.

Remarks

The StoreEnabledState property specifies whether to save/load the “enabled” states of layout items and groups when you call the SaveLayoutTo… and RestoreLayoutFrom… methods. These states are specified by the following options:

• LayoutControlItem.Enabled
• LayoutGroup.Enabled

Initially, when the StoreEnabledState property is set to Default, (de)serialization of these settings is disabled.

(De)Serialization of item and group states is enabled in the cases below:

• The StoreEnabledState property is set to True.
• The StoreEnabledState property is set to Default and any of the following properties is set to true: RestoreLayoutItemEnabled and RestoreGroupEnabled. Note that these properties are now hidden at design time; they are left for backward compatibility.
