DockingPaneManager inside a CWnd

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

   For some reason we want to be able to dock panes inside a CWnd object (this is because this CWnd is the container for the client part of a frame window provided in another DLL module).

So, we added a CXTPDockingPaneManager member to the CWnd, and we call CreatePane on it.

However, there is no message XTP_DPN_SHOWWINDOW called.

I believe this is because CXTPDockingPane::ShowWindow is not called, and I believe this is called because m_bLayoutCreated is not TRUE yet, because WM_SIZEPARENT is not sent by default to a CWnd.

Is there any recommended steps to take to get a docking pane manager to work inside any generic CWnd?

Thanks 

Adrien

	Add OnSize handler and add this code: (from Samples\DockingPane\DialogPanes sample) void CDialogPanesDlg::OnSize(UINT nType, int cx, int cy) { CDialog::OnSize(nType, cx, cy); CRect rcClient(0, 0, cx, cy); RepositionBars(0, 0xffff, AFX_IDW_PANE_FIRST, 0, 0, &rcClient); RepositionBars(0, 0xffff, AFX_IDW_PANE_FIRST, reposQuery, &rcClient, &rcClient); if (m_wndView.GetSafeHwnd()) { m_wndView.MoveWindow(rcClient); } }
