Hi,
I am facing problems with the UltraToolBarManager. I intend to place the toolbar in the titlebar of the Window. I set the DockWithinContainer property for the ToolBarManager as the host form & use the Top DockArea to place the toolbar. This places the toolbar right next to the host window icon. The problem I face is that when this Window becomes inactive inside my application the toolbar hides the hosted form icon on the left and the minimize, maximize & close button on the right. This happens when the Window is an MDI window. When I detach the window from the main application, it behaves perfectly. But when I attach it back the same issue remains. There are no issues when the window is either in SDI (active/inactive) or MDI (active) modes. The problem appears only when being an MDI window, the window becomes inactive.
Kindly advise about how to solve this issue
Thanks,
Mayank
I'm not sure I fully understand the issue. Can you post a screenshot of the inactive MDI window so I can see the problem?
Attached are screenshots of the MDI window titlebar in active/inactive modes.
What happens is as I select another window causing this window to become inactive, the toolbar shifts to the left and covers up the icon present earlier and the buttons just disappear. But switching back to this window makes everything appear in their normal state
For more clarification, I have hidden the ApplicationMenu and want to see the QuickAccessToolbar next to the Form Icon. This happens perfectly when the window is active but want to avoid the discrepancy when the window is inactive.
I see now. That was done intentionally to mimic the way Excel behaves. If you would like different behavior, you can submit a feature request for the ability to leave these icons and buttons on inactive mdi children here: http://devcenter.infragistics.com/Protected/RequestFeature.aspx.
Thanks for the clarification, I will do that
