Create initial hidden pane ???

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi!

XTP 9.70

We have a frame-window and 3 panes. the frame-window and the panes

reside in different MFC extension Dlls, and I would like to display all

after the loading process is completed at once. I am saving the pane-layout

and when I reload the layout the panes get visible BEFORE the frame-window gets displayed.

how can I initially set the panes hidden ?

any help with this would be greatly appreciated,

thanx in advance!

regards,

Hans

	this is how I create my Panes in CMainFrame::OnCreate() m_paneManager.CreatePane(IDR_PANE_OBJ_PROPERTIES, CRect(0, 0, 300, 120), xtpPaneDockRight)->Close(); m_paneManager.CreatePane(IDR_PANE_OBJ_NEW, CRect(0, 0, 95, 120), xtpPaneDockLeft)->Close(); m_paneManager.CreatePane(IDR_PANE_OBJ_LIST, CRect(0, 0, 95, 120), xtpPaneDockLeft)->Close(); this way they are immediately hidden. i don't see them popping up even once...

	Hi! thanx for your reply! I cant use your approach, because my problem occurs wehn I load a docking pane layout from the registry which creates the panes. I need a way to to set the visibility state of my panes AFTER they are created either wiht CreatePane() or via the docking pane layout. regards, Hans

	use m_paneManager.FindPane to get pointer and call pPane->Close(); to close it.

	Hi Oleg! this way the pane probably might shortly get visible and disappear after the Close() call ?! I managed it now via closing floating panes before shutding down my app. after I reload my app they appear floating again when I show them. closing a pane seems to be the only way to "hide" a pane. Hiding it doesnt make the pane-window disappear (in case of a floating pane). regards, Hans
