Hi.
I need to enumerate through all controls on given form or usercontrol.
Generally, this is done by recursively iterating through controls property.
Now, I've got a form that has UltraToolbar on it. The Toolbar is not accessible directly via form.controls collection, but there are four dock area controls that can be accessed. For each one of them, controls collection is empty, i.e. neither one of them acts as regular container.
The question is what is the best way to access that toolbar?
This is correct because toolbars and tools do not derived from Control. They are displayed using UIElements. The only time a dock area will contain another control is when a ControlContainerTool is placed on a toolbar or ribbon group. The contained control will be parented to the dock area. To iterate through toolbars and tools though, this will have to be done with other code that is specific to toolbars managers.
Thanks for the quick reply, Mike.
Could you at least give me a direction I should be looking to, since I've got quite lost in the object model.
I was unable to access the toolbars through the dock area at all, and this is currently the problem, so, how do I access toolbars via DockArea?
