Class ChildFrameBarManager
The ChildFrameBarManager manages the menus and tool bars of a child window (in an MDI scenario), in the XP Menus framework.
Implements
Inherited Members
Namespace: Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.XPMenus
Assembly: Syncfusion.Tools.Windows.dll
Syntax
public class ChildFrameBarManager : BarManager, IThemeProvider, IDisposable, ISupportInitialize, IBarItemsRepository, IDeserializationCallback, IIgnoreWorkingArea, IVisualStyle, ICloneable, ISerializableRemarks
Make sure to take a look at the BarManager class's documentation before you start using this derived class.
Always associate an instance of this class with a form that will be parented to another form (making it a child Form in an MDI scenario).
Note that in an MDI scenario, optionally you can provide the MainFrameBarManager prior knowledge of the all the child form types that it might parent, in order that the menus and tool bars provide a seamless interface to the user even though they are part of different child forms' BarManager. You do this via the MainFrameBarManager's RegisterMdiChildTypes(Type[]) method.
If you do not call the RegisterMdiChildTypes method, the child menus will be added/merged with the parent menus as and when the child forms are added to the mdi parent.
Examples
Take a look at our XPMenus samples under the Tools\Samples\Menus Package folder for usage example.
