It can't be truth. Container for DockingPane is always CXTPDockingPaneTabbedContainer if it visible.

When the item is floating. GetContainer() returns NULL. How do I find the selected pane at that point? Thanks.

In your method replace:

if (pContainer && pContainer->IsActive())
    {
      return pPane;
    }

if (pContainer && pContainer->IsActive())
    {
      return pContainer->GetSelected();
    }

I tried that. Every pane seems to return true for IsPaneSelected. I think IsPaneSelected tells you which pane is selected if the tabs are showing (meaning, more then one pane is attached to another.) I also tried IsSelected but IsPaneSelected calls IsSelected on the pane.

I believe you can use the IsSelected and Select methods defined inXTPDockingPane.h or IsPaneSelected defined in XTPDockingPaneManager.h.

I am trying to determine what pane is currently selected/active, regardless of whether it is docked or hidden or floating. I have a custom Theme that changes the selected/active Panes title bars color to orange when it is selected/active. I want the function to return a ptr to that Pane. I didn't find a function that did what I was looking for so I tried to write one but it is not working. I need this so that I can set focus back to what last had focus during certain situations. This is what my current function looks like. Any suggestions or does anyone know of any other function that already does what I am looking for?


CXTPDockingPane* CMyManager::GetActivePane()

{

  CXTPDockingPaneInfoList& paneList = m_paneManager.GetPaneList();

  POSITION pos = paneList.GetHeadPosition();

  

  CXTPDockingPaneTabbedContainer* pContainer = NULL;

  CXTPDockingPane* pPane = NULL;

  while (pos)

  {

    pPane = paneList.GetNext(pos);

    pContainer =  ((CXTPDockingPaneTabbedContainer*)pPane->GetContainer()); 

    if (pContainer && pContainer->IsActive())

    {

      return pPane;

    }

  }

  return NULL;

}
