MaxCustomControls::ToolStripContainerLayout Class Reference

---

Detailed Description

This class records the layout information of all toolbars inside a given ToolStripContainer.

We then use this class to arrange toolbars to their correct location in this container.

This is a temporary work around for ToolStrip layout. I created this class for two reasons:

1. The standard ToolStrip that provided by Microsoft has bugs and their position cannot be accurately set. I googled this and I found a lot of developers complained about this, see the link: connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=114610

2. Replace ToolStrip with other products can solve this problem, However, doing so means completely rewrite of the icon management, the buttons on the toolbars, the container panel of the toolbars, the save and load of toolbar layout information ---- which, means the completely rewrite of the entire toolbar mechanism of both scene explorer and material explorer. We decide to do this in Zelda timeframe.
