Hi ,

i would like to know if it is possible to use the same toolbar as opened in the first tab?

today if i open a new tab, a new instance of the toolbar is created and all the settings and information from the first tab is lost.

what i want to do is that if i have a toolbar on tab a and open a new tab b the MyIEToolBar1() will not run and instead will use the same instance from toolbar in tab a.

Thanks

Hi Hagay,

No, it is not possible. It is by design in IE.
To synchronize your settings you can use the following approach:

Thanks,

one more question .

i'am trying to do this by using messagetoall

private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
this.SendMessageToAll(1, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero);
}

private void MyIEToolBar1_OnSendMessage(AddinExpress.IE.ADXIESendMessageEventArgs e)
{
MessageBox.Show("Test");
}

but the MyIEToolBar1_OnSendMessage is not fired when pressing the button.

Please change the code as shown below:

int WM_USER = 0x0400;
int MY_MESSAGE = WM_USER + 100;

private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
this.SendMessageToAll(MY_MESSAGE, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero);
}
