SaveToXML: String;

Example

Executing the example requires a form, the Button1 button on this form, and the Ribbon component named Ribbon1. There is a document with the RibbonXML identifier in the repository.

Sub Button1OnClick(Sender: Object; Args: IMouseEventArgs);
Var
    MB: IMetabase;
    MObj: IMetabaseObject;
    Doc: IDocument;
    MStream: IMemoryStream;
    TxtWriter: ITextWriter;
Begin
    MB := MetabaseClass.Active;
    MObj := MB.ItemById("RibbonXML").Edit;
    Doc := MObj As IDocument;
    MStream := New MemoryStream.Create;
    TxtWriter := New TextWriter.Create(MStream);
    TxtWriter.Encoding := CodePage.UTF8;
    TxtWriter.WriteString(Ribbon1.SaveToXML);
    TxtWriter.Flush;
    Doc.LoadFromStream(MStream);
    Dispose MStream;
    MObj.Save;
End Sub Button1OnClick;

Clicking the button saves the ribbon structure to the specified document.
