Viewer Search Pane Location

Post by Daxston »

Hi,

By default the the Search Pane in the viewer is on the right side. Can I set it so that it is on the left side? What code do I use to do it?

Thanks,

Dax

No simple way for this currently. Please wait for next version of SDK - V3...
But you may like as end-user move the pane to the left side and use "SaveSettings".
After it you will be able to load all custom settings (and new pane position) by "LoadSettings" at each start of your program...

Hello Dax,

You can not control it's position via code, but you could manually move it to the desired position, and then export the settings to a data file. Then each time you are launching our AX control inside your application you can load the settings from this same data file - and the search pane would be moved to your desired default. You could actually force more than one setting with this settings file. There was a topic on this about a month ago in these forums, and I will try to dig up the link for you in a bit.

Best,
Stefan

Hi,

Do you have a code snippet to generate the file and then another snippet to load the settings file with the positioning?

Thanks,

Dax

Hello Dax,

You will need to manually create the custom settings file in an instance of the end user Viewer, and then - take a look at the Viewer AX manual on how to use the LoadSettings method.
