Hi,
I am currently evaluating the xamDockManager provided by Infragistics in order to see if it would be suitable to use for one of our internal applications.
During some of the initial testing scenarios I have noticed a certain behavior that I could not configure. It is about the “document” area.
I was wondering if it would be possible to set the docking control not to use a “document” area. I have attached a snapshot with the intended functionality.
Basically, would it be possible for example to have 2 panes, 1 docked to the left and the other docked Fill? So when I would drag out the on the left, the pane from the right hand side would fill the remaining area?
The code is based on the sample from your evaluation package:
<Grid>
<igDock:XamDockManager Theme="Generic">
<igDock:XamDockManager.Panes>
<igDock:SplitPane igDock:XamDockManager.InitialLocation="DockedLeft">
<igDock:ContentPane x:Name="leftEdgeDock" Header="Left Edge Dock Pane">
<Button Content="Left Edge Dock Content"/>
</igDock:ContentPane>
</igDock:SplitPane>
<igDock:SplitPane igDock:XamDockManager.InitialLocation="DockedRight">
<igDock:ContentPane x:Name="rightEdgeDock" Header="Right Edge Dock Pane">
<Button Content="Right Edge Dock Content"/>
</igDock:XamDockManager.Panes>
</igDock:XamDockManager>
</Grid>
Thank you,

Currently this functionality is not available. The xamDockManager is a ContentControl and expects to be positioning the root SplitPanes around the center content. You may want to submit a feature request for this.
