Container property for ultradock manager.
posted

Hi

I am working on window form appliocation. There are vatious panels on the form and in want dock sub controls ( i.e controls in those panels).

Using ultradock manager i am able to dock controls with respect to comlete window form , not wrt the corresponding panel. Also I am able to have only one dock manager on the form.

Can I dock controls wrt panels , not wrt form ?

Regerds,

Karan

    You can accomplish what you want, but not with Panel controls. The dock manager can be hosted in any ContainerControl-derived type. For dock manager, the ones that make the most sense are Form and UserControl. You can create a custom UserControl and add the dock manager to that. Then you can add an instance of one of those UserControls to a panel on you main form (or the UserControl can be the 'panel').

    Note: you cannot drag panes from one user control's dock manager to another user control's dock manager, even if they are on the same form.
