Is the UltraDockManager a replacement for the SplitController?
posted

I am still new to your controls and trying to comply with my company's directive to use your controls as much as possible.  I need a dialogbox that has bottons on the bottom, the main content on the left and details on the right.  I would like the user to be able to adjust how big the right is but not the bottom.  I do NOT need floating controls, that is actually a negative.

Should I be using the UltraDockManager?  If so, how to I make it look and behave like the SplitController?  If it isn't the correct control, is there an Infragistics control that will do the basic SplitController type of thing?

    Sam,

    The UltraDockManager is the component to use.  For information on how to get started with the UltraDockManager, please see this article in our online documentation.

    In order to prevent the panes from floating, you can set UltraDockManager.DefaultPaneSettings.AllowFloating to False.  In order to prevent the bottom pane from re-sizing, you can set the AllowResize property of that particular DockableControlPane to false.  I've attached a small sample I created that demonstrates this.
