SetLayout method |

Applies to
Declaration
void SetLayout(string LayoutFile,
string LayoutName,
string LayoutPASS,
string MainXML,
string SecondXML);
Description
The method SetLayout() is used to load the description file for the user interface. The editor cannot display a toolbar without such a file.
Please see the introduction chapter for examples.
If you specify a relative path the directory which contains the engine DLL will be used as basis.
Parameters
LayoutFile |
the path to the layout file, i.e. "Buttons.PCC". |
LayoutName |
the name of the layout entry in the package file, i.e. "default". |
LayoutPW |
the password used for the PCC file or an empty string. |
LayoutMainXML |
the XML branch for the main editor, i.e. "main". |
LayoutSecondXML |
the XML branch for the second editor (can be the same as LayoutMainXML). |
Example:
SetLayout(".\\buttons.pcc", "default", "", "main", "main");
The .NET assembly also implements the SetLayout method with only two parameters, LayoutFile and LayoutPW. The other parameters will use the values "default", "main", "main".
So you can also type:
SetLayout(".\\buttons.pcc","");
