Hello John,

... the solution described here is not helpful at all. Simply because of the proper name reference to "ContainerControls". I have .NET WinForm v11 and there is no control called "ContainerControls"

Did you try to add this control to your VisualStudio`s Toobox using "Choose Items" action from context menu ? Or did you try to create an instance from this class using the code from attached sample in previous response ? For example:

 ContainerControl container = new ContainerControl();

container.Size =new System.Drawing.Size(splitContainer1.Panel2.Bounds.Width, splitContainer1.Panel2.Bounds.Height);

container.Dock =DockStyle.Fill;

container.SetBounds(splitContainer1.Panel2.Bounds.X, splitContainer1.Panel2.Bounds.Y, splitContainer1.Panel2.Bounds.Width, splitContainer1.Panel2.Bounds.Height);

container.Parent = splitContainer1.Panel2;

container.BackColor =Color.Red;

I put an UltraStatusBar on my form and then proceed to add some UltraTabControl items as dockable items. Each dockable item appears BENEATH the status bar.I don't understand why UltraDockManager is NOT respecting the control boundaries set by the UltraStatusBar. I thought I might try using a Panel control to fill the space above it and then "somehow" add my UltraTabControls in there but that was a futile effort.

You could solve this task using only the designer. Please take a look at the attached sample and video file how to achieve desired behavior.

Let me know if you have any questions.
