I checked that sample code. It is similar to my code.

However, it does not have the solution that I need.

I want to drag out the tab in UltraTabbedMdiManager like below capture.

HI,

Maybe one possible approach could be if you handle TabDropped event. For example:

private void ultraTabbedMdiManager1_TabDropped(object sender, Infragistics.Win.UltraWinTabbedMdi.MdiTabDroppedEventArgs e)

{

    ultraDockManager1.ActivePane.Float();

}

Please take a look at the attached video for more details and let me know if you have any questions.

Regards

It can make the tab floating, but when I take this way, I can not move the tab to nested tab group or vertical tab group in the ultraTabbedMdiManager.

I want to use both of them, which are drag out floating and drag to nested tab group like visual studio.

I thought ultraDockManager and ultraTabbedMdiManager support these functions.

Is there any way to do this?

The mentioned behavior is expected with my suggestion from previous post. If you want to use nested tab group functionality, you could extend my suggestion with IF Conditions. At that moment I`m not able to provide you another approach for your requirement.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Hello George,

I thought the UltraDockManager and UltraTabbedMdiManager support the functionality that drag out floating like visual studio.

However, it seems they don't have that functionality I expected.

Why do not the contols of NetAdvantage support this functionality?

You gave me the good approach that use TabDropped event, but it affects other functionality like moving nested tab groups because TabDropped event makes floating.

I tried to find the way to use both by using IF Condition with MdiTabDroppedEventArgs, but I can't.

If you have any idea about this, please let me know.

Hi,

Have you been able to resolve your issue ? Did you try my suggestion. If you still have any concerns or questions I will be glad to help. If you need any additional assistance don’t hesitate to ask.

Regards

Thanks for provided information, but mentioned behavior is expected, because by this way your "Listing" (see the screenshot from previous post) at that moment is MDIChildForm and ultraTabbedMdiManager1_TabDropped() event doesn`t fire.

So if you want to achieve desired behavior you should extend your code for example like that:

        private bool IsPressed = false;

        private void ultraTabbedMdiManager1_TabDropped(object sender, Infragistics.Win.UltraWinTabbedMdi.MdiTabDroppedEventArgs e)

        {

            if (e.Tab.UIElement != null)

            {

                ultraDockManager1.ActivePane.Float();

                if (e.Tab.TabGroup.Tabs.Count == 1)

                {

                   ultraTabbedMdiManager1.ActiveTab.MoveToNewGroup();  

                }

            }

        }

       void Control_MouseUp(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)

        {

            if (e.Button == System.Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Left && IsPressed) IsPressed = false;

        }

        void Control_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)

        {

           if (e.Button == System.Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Left && !IsPressed) IsPressed = true;

        }

        private void ultraTabbedMdiManager1_MouseLeaveElement(object sender, UIElementEventArgs e)

        {

            e.Element.Control.MouseDown += new MouseEventHandler(Control_MouseDown);

            e.Element.Control.MouseUp += new MouseEventHandler(Control_MouseUp);

            if (e.Element.GetType() == typeof(Infragistics.Win.ImageAndTextUIElement.ImageAndTextDependentTextUIElement) && IsPressed)

            {

                ultraDockManager1.ActivePane.Float();

                IsPressed = false;

            }

        }

I mean if the tab groups have multiple tabs like below the first picture, tabs can drag out.

However, if the tab groups have only one tab like below the second picture, the tab can not be dragged.

I want to find the way in this situation. Please let me know how to do that.

If the TabbedMdiManager has multiple tabs, it works, but one tab in the TabbedMdiManager can not be dragged.

Do you know why?

No, I made a test with my sample and everything works properly. Could you please give me more details around this issue. If you are able, please modeify my sample to reproduce this issue and revert it back to me. By this way I`ll be able to reserach your scenario.

guidegi said:

Is there any property that one tab can be dragged out?

No, and I`d like to inform you that it is not possible to have such property, because if you want to achieve desired behavior, you should combine two different controls (UltraTabbedMDiManager with their TabDropped event and UltraDockManager with thier Float() method), so no way to have a property for this functionality

Let me know if you have any further questions.

This solution has one more problem.

If the TabbedMdiManager has multiple tabs, it works, but one tab in the TabbedMdiManager can not be dragged.

Do you know why?
