Hi,

Having modified the ActivePaneView sample, my answer to both questions is yes.

Hello Oleg,

I'm really glad you've implemented one of our requests.
I'd like to have two questions about this pretty new feature, to see if we ought to upgrade from 10.1 to 10.3:
  1. Do StickyFrames support multimonitor desktops?
  2. Any built-in support for snapping to MDI client edges? (or any possibility to push in a custom overridden class to achieve this functionality without rebuilding the XTP library?)
Thanks for your answers, in advance!

OK - I see the screen edge stickyness. It would be nice to have the pane snap to the screen and use all available width and/or height as appropriate.

So I could drag a view from my MDI app on screen 1 and have the view go full screen on screen 2.

And drag my dialog panes from my MDI app and have the snap - rally snap - to screen 2. that would be GREAT !!!

OK, I modified the DialogPanes sample and see how floating panes stick together. I don't see any stickyness to the screen (monitor) edges.

Having stuck three panes together it would be nice to be able to drag them three around the screen in one 'lump' somehow.

Hello,
 
Try float pane and move it near screen edges/another floating frame.

Sorry - I'm too stupid to understand. In the ActivePaneView sample I changed CMainFrame but don't see any change in the program Cry

    // Initialize the docking pane manager and set the
    // initial them for the docking panes.  Do this only after all
    // control bars objects have been created and docked.
    m_paneManager.InstallDockingPanes(this);
    // Set Office 2003 Theme
    m_paneManager.SetTheme(xtpPaneThemeOffice);
    m_paneManager.SetStickyFloatingFrames(TRUE);

That is, to make a floating pane "jump" (by adjusting its position) to the edges, keeping the pane still undocked. Something like what Photoshop does with its non-modal dialogs.

If it'll be part of 10.3, it's great. At what time horizon can we await this feature approximately?

Wow!

[Warning - hope this makes sense]

Many of my users have dual screens, so I could run my MDI app on screen 1 and snap my many dialogs to screen 2?

I would dearly like to be able to drag a MDI view from the MDI app on screen 1 so that it snaps / docks to screen 2. If Codejock and jockettes achieve this then - Wow!

Standard Windows MDI support for dual monitor systems isn't great. I have essentially two main views, the ability to press a button, have the app go full size across both monitors and put a view on each monitor is very desirable.
