Have floating dock areas always visible
posted

Hi,

I have a dashboard form which has dockable controls on it. My dashboard form opens other forms using form.Show().

The question I have is, is it possible to have my floating panels always visible? At the moment the floating panels will be hidden by the newly opened forms.

    Hi Nathan2009,

    You can achieve the effect that you are describing by simply calling the BringToFront() method on your dashboard form, immediately after your newly opened forms have been created. I have constructed and attached a sample, which demonstrates this approach for reference.

    Please find the sample attached.

    If you have any questions at all regarding this issue please let me know.

    Sincerely,
