Do anyone know how to make a pane without caption when the pane is docked? I mean a pane without a caption at all, not hide the caption text since I have many panes and want to save the space when they are docked.

Hi,

Try

m_paneManager.GetPaintManager()->m_bShowCaption = FALSE;

Thanks, the caption is not shown when I call

m_paneManager.GetPaintManager()->m_bShowCaption = FALSE;

However, it does not help. I lose the ability to move/float the pane once docked. Do I miss anything here? The previous docking pane tool I have have the function to move/float when it is docked.

You don't want caption but want to allow docking... How it must look?

also try:

m_paneManager.GetPaintManager()->m_bDrawSingleTab = TRUE ;

to draw single tabs.

and may be

m_paneManager.GetPaintManager()->GetTabPaintManager()-> ;SetPosition(xtpTabPositionTop);

to draw them at top.

The old tool from Stingray enables to move the pane when I press left mouse down in any empty place in the pane and can drag the pane to anywhere. I do not have to drag the caption to move. And I can double click the pane to make it floating. A Word doc file with a image how it looks like is http://forum.codejock.com/uploads/DPDP/2005-09-26_131559_DPDP.zip - 2005-09-26_131559_DPDP.zip attached.

I tried the following three calls, it is almost achieve my requirements except when I float a pane, it has a caption and a single tab which is unacceptable. Then I try to set m_bDrawSingleTab = FALSE by catching the floating action. Unfortunately this attribute seems to apply all panes globally. When setting it to be false, an existing single docked pane lost the tab, and lost the drag and floating abilities. Any further sugguestion will be much appreciated.

1.m_paneManager.GetPaintManager()->m_bShowCaption = FALSE;

or SetOptions(xtpPaneNoCaption) when creating the pane.

2.m_paneManager.GetPaintManager()->m_bDrawSingleTab = TRUE ;

3.m_paneManager.GetPaintManager()->GetTabPaintManager()-

>SetPositionxtpTabPositionTop);
