In my MDI application, the following is being fired off which is causing the child form to appear again in the MDI. At the point of catching VisibleChanged in the child form, I can see Visible has been set to True at this point.
Appears to stem from UltraWinEditors.TextEditorControlBase.LayoutToolStripOwningOverflow()
Any idea how I can switch this off? What is it doing?

Hi Andrew,
I will be happy to assist you with your inquiry.
In order for us to properly isolate the cause of this issue, we will need to reproduce this behavior in our environment. May I ask if you can provide me with a sample with steps to reproduce? If this is not possible, can you provide me with more details about you application that I can use to create a sample which mimics your app?
It is my understanding that you are using build .2040.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Hi Jose,
Sorry I can't provide you with this at the moment.
Can you check your code base to see why this LayoutToolStripOwningOverflow() event is firing? If I can at least turn this behavious off I can keep my client happy. Can you also find out when this event was added, as a recent bug was fixed for me in the latest hotfix which resolved toolstrip overflow not working correctly.
Thanks,
Andrew
Currently trying to put in a hack in the VisibleChanged event in my base form.
Hello Andrew,
Thank you for your response. I discussed this issue with our engineers, and they believe the issue is occuring because the handle for the UltraTextEditor is being created.
However, without being able to reproduce the issue, we are unable to determine the ultimate cause of the issue. I've modified the sample Jose provided earlier to more closely match what I believe you're doing. I'd like you to look at the sample and compare it with the project you're having the issue with, and then modify my sample to match what your project is doing.
I can't provide you with this unfortunately so we are at a stale mate.
Did you ever find out the information regarding the following?
"Can you check your code base to see why this LayoutToolStripOwningOverflow() is firing" ?
By setting the CanOverflow = False I imagine just stops the above event from being called.
The stack trace doesn't provide the information needed for us to properly reproduce this behavior. Reproduction of the behavior you've described is crucial in order for us to isolate the cause of this issue and provide you with a solution. There may be a reason why the toolStrip.PerformLayout() method is call in this scenario, but without reproducing your issue, we may not be able to provide a proper fix to prevent this issue from occurring in the future.
Is it possible for you to alter the sample attached in my previous message so that it reproduces the behavior instead?
I'm using versing 13.1.20131.2040 and it's still an issue since nothing has changed here.
I can't send a sample as it's in our main job system.
I was hoping that the stack trace would give some indication in to what is going on.
Regards,
May I ask if you are still encountering this issue?
I have attached the sample project I used to test this. Please test this project on your PC; whether or not it works correctly may help indicate the nature of this problem.
If the project does not work correctly, this indicates either a problem possibly specific to your environment, or a difference in the DLL versions we are using. My test was performed using version 13.1.20131.2060 in NetAdvantage for Windows Forms 13.1.
If the project does show the product feature working correctly, this indicates a possible problem in the code of your application. It will help if you can provide a small, isolated sample application that demonstrates the behavior you are seeing.
Or, if this sample project is not an accurate demonstration of what you're trying to do, please feel free to modify it and send it back, or send a small sample project of your own if you have one.
Please let me know if I can provide any further assistance.
