Looking for taskbar control
posted

Hi,

I'm not sure I'm posting in the right forum but this is because I'm not sure which control I'm looking for.

In Visual Studio you have the taskbar like panes you can dock, pin and slide in and out. On these controls you can place more panels (witin the panelmanager) and you can place your controls on the panels.

 We use the latest version of: NetAdvantage but we are unable to find this type of control in the toolset for windows forms.

Is such a control available within the toolset? If so where can I find it.

Thank you.

    What I did to create something similar to what you are describing is the following.

    Take whatever controls you want to use or that have the functionality you desire. I usually use an ultragroupbox and add controls to it. Then use the ultra docking control (add an ultradockmanager), right click the group box and dock it. You now have a control you can dock, pin, slide, etc. Combined with this, you can now dock and add control within this control as well, and the dock manager will also save settings if you desire. All these controls have a very reasonable degree of customization. I think this should serve you well.
