Another solution seems to be to dock the UltraStatusBar control to the bottom using the UltraDockManager and hide the caption. But I'm sure there must be an easier way?

Hi Mike,

I have an UltraDockManager with controls docked on the left hand side of the form. I am trying to add an UltraStatusBar to the form to the bottom of all the docked controls (the bottommost control on the form). The UltraStatusBar is not automatically docking beyond the docking panes. It appears on the bottom-right side of the docked controls.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Niz

Even I am facing a similar problem. I want to prevent any window form being docked beyond my statubar and menu. Is there a way to do this?

The UltraStatusBar and UltraToolbarsManager toolbars and menu should automatically dock beyond the docking panes if they are all owned by the Form. However, if you are using the .Net statusbar and menus, you can dock them to the Form. Then you can add your dock manager to a UserControl instead of the Form. Add an instance of the UserControl to the Form and set its Dock to Fill and the dock panes will stay within the statusbar and menus.
