Was this fixed in v12?

Hm.. Think you are right.

Good, but I found it to be tricky to get the desired behavior anyway (just recompiled with this change). Let me clarify the issue:

VS 2008. "Properties" pane is attached. If I drag the pane to "floating mode", the floating window size is not the same as when attached! The floating window should always remember its "ideal" size. All your docking pane samples suffer from this.
 
I believe we have a "behavior bug" here .

Hi,

CXTPDockingPaneMiniWnd::Init(CXTPDockingPaneBase* pPane, CRect rc) should be virtual!
 
In that case, you can override Init and fiddle with the rc-parameter.

When making panes floating, it is often desirable to change their size to "best fit". You seldom want a floating pane to occupy half of the screen.
 
This is a missing feature, and it seems quite hard to override this behavior by inheriting from CXTPDockingPane*. Can you please add this functionality in 12.0?
 
Whenever a pane is about the get sized, it should do something like:
 
GetChild()->SendMessage(WM_XTP_BESTPANESIZE, bIsFloating, &rect);
// Continue sizing pane...
 
Also, do not forget the drag frame! It should also use this "best fit" rectangle when the pane is floating.
