Example

The following sample code saves a Pivot Grid Control’s layout to a memory stream and then restores it.

System.IO.Stream stream;
stream = new System.IO.MemoryStream();
pivotGridControl1.SaveLayoutToStream(stream);
stream.Seek(0, System.IO.SeekOrigin.Begin);

// ...
pivotGridControl1.RestoreLayoutFromStream(stream);
stream.Seek(0, System.IO.SeekOrigin.Begin);
