Change pane caption text in-place
posted

Hi,

I want to change the caption text of a docked window (DockableControlPane) in-place, like it is possible e.g. in Excel. In Excel, if you double click the sheet caption it lets you edit the text right in the tab header. Is this somehow possible with the UltraDockManager?

If not directly possible in the docking caption header, is it possible in a Tab header?

Please see screenshots

Regards

MIchael

    Hello Michael,

    Thank you for posting to our forums. Unfortunately, the UltraDockManager does not support in-place text editing. I recommend submitting a new product idea on our website to include in-place text renaming on the UltraDockManager. Please use this link: http://ideas.infragistics.com.

    This functionality has been discussed a couple times in the past, and the suggested solution would be to manually position a TextBox over the appropriate UIElement. I've attached a relatively small sample that should get you fairly close with this approach.

    Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks,

    Chris
