Disable Docking

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

   In a CXTMDIChildWnd based class I have a CXTToolBar placed on the left side of a window using the following code in the OnCreate method:
 m_wndToolBar.EnableDocking(CBRS_ALIGN_ANY);
 EnableDocking(CBRS_ALIGN_ANY);
 DockControlBar(&m_wndToolBar, AFX_IDW_DOCKBAR_LEFT);
Once the window appears with the toolbar docked on the left side of the window, I would like the toolbar to be stuck there so the user cannot drag it or undock it.  How do I do this?

	Instead EnableDocking(CBRS_ALIGN_ANY); try CBRS_ALIGN_TOP

	I changed the code in the OnCreate procedure from: m_wndToolBar.EnableDocking(CBRS_ALIGN_ANY); EnableDocking(CBRS_ALIGN_ANY); DockControlBar(&m_wndToolBar, AFX_IDW_DOCKBAR_LEFT); to m_wndToolBar.EnableDocking(CBRS_ALIGN_ANY); EnableDocking(CBRS_ALIGN_TOP); DockControlBar(&m_wndToolBar, AFX_IDW_DOCKBAR_LEFT); Unfortunately, all it did was move the toolbar to the top of the window and it was still detachable.

	Now if I change the code to: m_wndToolBar.EnableDocking(CBRS_ALIGN_LEFT); EnableDocking(CBRS_ALIGN_LEFT); DockControlBar(&m_wndToolBar, AFX_IDW_DOCKBAR_LEFT); The toolbar comes up docked on the left and I cannot drag the toolbar if I grip it and do a drag. But if I grip close to the single button I have on the toolbar, then it allows me to drag the toolbar and detach it. In this case I can only reattach it to the left side of the window. Ideally, I would like to not allow any way to detach the toolbar from the left side of the window.
