Hi,
After going through the documentation and and N number of posts it looks like the DockManager in winforms package uses the Name as the key, So, I have to give unique name to every DockAreaPane so that when we save the layout and load the same, the dockmanager can arrange everything properly.
Here is the issue I am facing,
1. I want to provide a caption for the docareapane that will be controlled by the user, so there is a possibility for duplicates.
2. Is there a serialization ID like WPF or some other way that save / load layout doesn't depend on the name key ?
3. Worst case scenario - Is there a way to hid the caption text? so that none of the docking pane show any caption text. if I set showcaption = False. The whole caption bar gets hidden thats not what I want.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Hi Boris,
Sorry about the late response.
Yes. It worked. Thanks for your help.

Hello,
I am checking about the progress of this issue. Please let me know If you need my further assistance on this.
Hello ssinha,
For the first and second you could take a look at my sample - I believe that the Caption has nothing to do with the Key of the pane so after changing the captions of all panes to be duplicate and reordering the panes, loading the layout everything seems to work fine.
For the third you could try setting the caption to empty string.
Please feel free to let me know if I misunderstood you or if you have any other questions.
