OK. These days, I have realized my functions by reuse the abandoned code. I share it in attachment.

But it's not perfect, because still there are some problems in new code. If it's prossible, please assist me to resolve these.

1. FindDockManager function, how to find the host DockManager in TabGroupPane ?

I cannot find the FindDockManager() in new TabGroupPane class and XamDockManager.GetDockManager(child), so I cannot use the AttachBehaviors to realize view activation in exist tabs. 

protected override void AttachBehaviors(IRegion region, TabGroupPane regionTarget)
{
base.AttachBehaviors(region, regionTarget);

//XamDockManagerActiveAwareBehavior syncBehavior = new XamDockManagerActiveAwareBehavior(regionTarget.FindDockManager(), region);
//syncBehavior.Attach();
}

2. I cannot find Closed event of ContentPane in v12.1, so ...

//When contentPane is closed remove the associated region
//newContentPane.Closed += delegate(object contentPaneSender, PaneClosedEventArgs args)
//{
// OnContentPaneClosed((ContentPane)contentPaneSender, args, region);
//};

But I resolved the first problem by first to active exist pane in view code behind  then if it not exist,  create new region.

Hello Cubean,

I am just checking the progress of this issue and was wondering if you managed to achieve your goal or if you need any further assistance on the matter.

If the above suggestion helped you solve your issue please verify the thread as answered so other users may take better advantage of it.

Hello Cubean, 

I have been looking into your latest response and am glad to hear you have been able to resolve the first issue. Regarding 2) the difference in the ContentPane class are not due to the version, since the Silverlight XamDockManger is a different control than the WPF’s XamDockManager. In Silverlight there are PaneClosing and PaneClosed events exposed by the XamDockManger instance, however if you’d like to be able to register for such a notification directly through the ContentPane’s instance you can try out handling the PropertyChanged event like so:

private void ContentPane_PropertyChanged(object sender, PropertyChangedEventArgs e)

{

    if (e.PropertyName == "OwnerPane" && (sender as ContentPane).OwnerPane == null)

    {

        //CLOSED ACTIONS here       

    }

}

Hope this helps. Looking forward to hearing from you.
