This problem is regarding the double-click action on a pane's title bar to toggle that pane to/from it's last docked/non docked position.

The problem only exists when the ShowContentsWhileDragging option is True.  The IDE is VB6.

The video below illustrates the problem using the SDISample code.  I am using Xtreme SuitePro ActiveX v22.1.0

At the start of the video, ShowContentsWhileDragging is set to FALSE and the behaviour is correct.  When you drag the floating pane G towards the bottom of the docked pane F and drop in the indicated position, pane G becomes docked below pane F.  Double clicking the title bar of pane G restores the pane to it's floating condition in the correct position, ie the position it was last in before being docked.

After setting ShowContentsWhileDragging to TRUE, the same double click incorrectly restores pane G to the position where it was dropped rather than the position where it was before being docked.  In this example, and in our application, this results in the pane being almost completely off-screen and I know this will confuse our end-users.

It is a minor point I know but this means our quality team won't allow ShowContentsWhileDragging  until the usual behaviour can be restored, and I really would like to enable ShowContentsWhileDragging as it looks so much more modern.

Is there anything that I can do to alter this behaviour myself or will it require a code change in the ActiveX control?

Many thanks,

Mike

We now have a problem. We already have multiple usage of DockPanel of CodeJocks to show dock-panels in few parts of screen: mostly it is on the right side of main screen, and on the left side of the main screen. However, also we have a dock-panel in lower part of screen, and it is below some othe program which we call as external .exe file from our main program. So we are struggling with making it possible to dock in the bottom of it, in such a way, that it has exactly same width as a program which is above this newly created dock-panel at bottom.

I attach a screenshot of sample which you provided.

Our window looks similar to what is on scrrenshot.

problem is that after we have only dock-panel only on left (and maybe on right also),

but not at bottom, and want to open dock-panel also at bottom, unfortunately it always appears in such a way that it takes whole bottom part of whole program/window, but not is not placed into the middle part of screen - exactly at it's bottom (bottom of middle part of screen). so please suggest a solution how to do it in code 

thank you in advance

on the screenshot - pane5 takes all bottom part of screen, but it must be between pane7 and between pane10 (which are on left and right), and at same time - at bottom of middle part of screen.

I have a form which is in a docked pane.

Dragging & Dropping from Windows explorer (dragging files into a window) does not work.

The window doesn't get focus when the mouse is dragged over it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Tim

Regards,

Thanks. But. This is a sample applications.

Did your testers check this samples before building next setup?

This is the easiest, fastest and cheapest method to test the working capacity of new components.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Codejock Software\ActiveX\Xtreme SuitePro ActiveX v20.0.0\Samples\DockingPane\C#.NET\DockingPane\

Try to resize any of the panes and you see the divider move, but it just snaps back when you stop dragging.

I upgraded our application to 20.0.0 and it is unusable because the docking panes do not resize.
