Couple of Dock Questions
posted

I have an application that requires a section be a dock for three tabs.  To create this I made a user control and then added that control with the three control panes to my main form.  This works like I want.  However there are a couple of things that I would like to change.

1.  The user can un-dock the entire thing from the form (UltraDockManager and all three tabs).  Is there a way to prevent this so that only the tabs can be moved?

2.  The Caption and Tab are redundant when the tab is docked.  How would I hide the caption when the tab is docked, so it only appears when it is floating.

Thanks

    Hi,

    It is possible and I suggest you to use some of  the properties below:

    [code]

    DockableGroupPane

     

     

    dgpLeft = new DockableGroupPane();

     

     

     

    DockAreaPane dapLeft = new DockAreaPane(DockedLocation.DockedLeft);

    dgpLeft.DockAreaPane.Settings.AllowFloating = Infragistics.Win.

     

    DefaultableBoolean.False;

    OR

    dapLeft.Settings.AllowFloating = Infragistics.Win.

     

    DefaultableBoolean.False;

    OR

    dapLeft.Panes[0].Settings.AllowFloating = Infragistics.Win.

     

    DefaultableBoolean.False;

    [\code]

    Please if you have any questions do not hesitate to ask me

    Regards

    I may have posted one of those question too soon.  I just added the following that I think will take care of Q2. I used the DockChange event to manage the pane's Caption.  I suspect that I might be able to disable the un-docking of the main control as well.
