Hi,
I am using the Ribbon menu, in place designer under VS2008 and experienced some weired behaviour.
Using the "In Place Designer" I've created two tabs each having a couple of Groups. I ran the application and looked OK. Then I went in the "Custom property Pages" and and start changing titles and labels. Everything was OK and the editor responded as expected. After changing those captions I ran again the aplication to see how does look. I had the surprise the ribbon actually showed the same interface as was at the first compilation/run. No matter how many changes I do in the "Custom Property Pages", it is not reflected at the run time.
If I close the Form - Design and open it again, my crafted captions and Groups are gone, the form goes back to the configuration at the first compilation. It looks that the changes I made don`t get saved after the first compilation.
I thought I am doing something wrong so I started the VS 2005 and repeate the operations. Everything works like a charm, no hidden surprises.
Is anybody having an ideea what is the cause of this problem?
Here is the configuration:
Ribbon is hosted on a MDI form.
OS: XP SP2
VS2008 - SP1
Infragistics: NetAdvantage_20071_CLR2X_HotFix_1067 installed
Thanks,
Octavian
I didn't have this hot fix installed, I'll download it and give it a try.
Thanks.
If this is the same as BR29198, the fix has been released (I believe the hotfix went out 4/18/08). Are you using the initial release of 7.3. If so, that does not contain the fix. You can either upgrade to the latest hotfix for 7.3 or upgrade to a newer version. If you already have the version with the fix, it could be a new issue and in that case I would recommend submitting the issue to the support group: http://es.infragistics.com/gethelp.
I am also experiencing this bug (the designer not saving changes), the only solution is to close all instances of Infragistics designers (i.e. close any forms that have Infragistics componenets on them) then re-open. After this you can make changes but after you save for the first time you need to close the designer again (at which point it usually prompts you to save the changes to the form, even though you have already clicked on Save All!). If you carry on editing the form after the first save, without re-opening, it often results in losing your work! :(
I am using VS2008 on an XP machine with Infragistics v7.3.
Do we have a fix for this bug yet?

Thanks Mike, we'll upgradeour systems and re-check.
Could you point me out to a document describing the licensing requirements governing Ribbon usage? I remember it was a message at the begining of the instalation but I did not prin it at that time. I tried to locate it on MS site but I was un-succesful so far.
