Pane resize with an ocx on

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I just started looking at the docking pane and I managed to attach my ocx to it. The ocx holds some other controls that are resized on the resize event of the ocx, but that is not called although the ocx apparently is resized by the pane. How do I trap the resize event so I can adjust the controls inside the ocx?
Thanks, Joe

	if you are using commandbars, then only the commandbars_resize even will be called.

	I'm not using commandbars, I'm talking about docking pane.

	Locate it to picture box without borders and Private Sub DockingPaneManager_AttachPane(ByVal Item As XtremeDockingPane.IPane) Item.Handle = Picture1.Hwnd End Sub Private Sub Picture1_Resize() UserControl11.Move 0, 0, Picture1.Width, Picture1.Height End Sub

	Thanks Oleg, it almost works. It's working only if the pane is docked, but not when the pane floats (dblclk on the header). I found out that this is a MS bug (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q187740/) but that doesn't help too much because I doubt that they will ever fix it...

	I see that nobody from CJ is commenting more on this case - is considered solved from CJ point of view?

	I'm having a very similar issue as well. I've followed the code in here, so my panes all have a picture box attached to them. The picture boxes contain the individual OCXs which are then resized in the picture box resize event. Trouble is the contents of the OCX don't seem to be drawn completely. Works fine when panes are getting resized by the splitter, but if a pane is floated and docked somewhere else (causing a resize of the pane with the OCX) then the OCX isn't drawn fully during the resize event. Tab in-and-out of the app and it's drawn fully again. Works fine if I substitute a text box for the OCX. Any ideas? I'm going to try forcing the OCX to redraw itself in this situation (although I'd have expected the Move method to have done that).
