CustomTaskPaneCollection Class (2007 System)

Represents a collection of custom task panes in a Microsoft Office application.

Namespace:  Microsoft.Office.Tools
Assembly:  Microsoft.Office.Tools.Common.v9.0 (in Microsoft.Office.Tools.Common.v9.0.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public NotInheritable Class CustomTaskPaneCollection _
    Implements IEnumerable(Of CustomTaskPane), IEnumerable,  _
    ISupportInitialize, IDisposable
'Usage
Dim instance As CustomTaskPaneCollection
public sealed class CustomTaskPaneCollection : IEnumerable<CustomTaskPane>, 
    IEnumerable, ISupportInitialize, IDisposable
public ref class CustomTaskPaneCollection sealed : IEnumerable<CustomTaskPane^>, 
    IEnumerable, ISupportInitialize, IDisposable
public final class CustomTaskPaneCollection implements IEnumerable<CustomTaskPane>, IEnumerable, ISupportInitialize, IDisposable

Remarks

Use the CustomTaskPaneCollection class in an application-level add-in to add a custom task pane to an application, remove a custom task pane, or access an existing custom task pane.

Do not create your own instance of the CustomTaskPaneCollection class. Instead, use the CustomTaskPanes field of the ThisAddIn class in your add-in project. For more information about the ThisAddIn class, see Programming Application-Level Add-Ins and AddIn Host Item.

Task panes are user interface panels that are typically docked to one side of an application window. For more information about how to create custom task panes, see Custom Task Panes Overview.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to create a custom task pane by using the Add(UserControl, String) method. The example also uses properties of the CustomTaskPane object to modify the default appearance of the custom task pane. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the CustomTaskPane class.

Private myUserControl1 As MyUserControl
Private WithEvents myCustomTaskPane As Microsoft.Office.Tools.CustomTaskPane

Private Sub ThisAddIn_Startup(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
    Handles Me.Startup

    myUserControl1 = New MyUserControl()
    myCustomTaskPane = Me.CustomTaskPanes.Add(myUserControl1, "New Task Pane")

    With myCustomTaskPane
        .DockPosition = Office.MsoCTPDockPosition.msoCTPDockPositionFloating
        .Height = 500
        .Width = 500
        .DockPosition = Office.MsoCTPDockPosition.msoCTPDockPositionRight
        .Width = 300
        .Visible = True 
    End With 
End Sub
private MyUserControl myUserControl1;
private Microsoft.Office.Tools.CustomTaskPane myCustomTaskPane;

private void ThisAddIn_Startup(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    myUserControl1 = new MyUserControl();
    myCustomTaskPane = this.CustomTaskPanes.Add(myUserControl1,
        "New Task Pane");

    myCustomTaskPane.DockPosition =
        Office.MsoCTPDockPosition.msoCTPDockPositionFloating;
    myCustomTaskPane.Height = 500;
    myCustomTaskPane.Width = 500;

    myCustomTaskPane.DockPosition =
        Office.MsoCTPDockPosition.msoCTPDockPositionRight;
    myCustomTaskPane.Width = 300;

    myCustomTaskPane.Visible = true;
    myCustomTaskPane.DockPositionChanged +=
        new EventHandler(myCustomTaskPane_DockPositionChanged);
}
