Dear support,

I am using addinexpress in PowerPoint and I am using one of the feature of Addin Express ADXPowerPointTaskPane.
It seems that changing the width of the task pane does not have any effect.
I have tried to set a width very big (1000), but when I am starting PowerPoint, the task pane keeps the same width.

The only way to change the width is to do it manually. Why ?
How i set the width of the task pane so it is applied when I am starting PowerPoint.

Thanks a lot for your help

Hello Vannick,

What Add-in Express build you have installed? What build of AddinExpress.OL.2005 is referenced by your project?

The version 8.6.4408.2005 of AddinExpress.PP.2005
But I do not have any AddinExpress.OL.2005 in my project.

Hello Vannick,

Thank you. How do you change the width? In what event do you use it? May I have some code for testing?

Hi Andrei Smolin, Actually, I am using the attributes Width provided by Visual Studio Designer to put a custom width.
However the properties set in the Visual Studio designer is never applied
How can i send you an example?
Thanks

Hello Vannick,

This occurs because you cancel the ADXSplitterMove event; see the SplitterMove method.

Dear support,

Even if I am following what you are mentioning, I am still not able to make it working.
I just replied to you by email with the project updated with your remarks.

Could you please have a look?
Thanks a lot

Hello Vannick,

For us, your project works correctly. Is it possible that you have an older add-in version installed or registered from the IDE?
