   Hi 

I have a  Vc++ application . It has 6 panes in main window .
All these panes are attached to each other . covers entire window area . 
If I click on caption bar of docked panes ,It undocks them , starts showing close button on right top corner .All 6 of them still connected .

after this if i try clicking inside pane , It does not accept those clicks . 
also It does not let me switch between 6 panes . when they are undocked 
why ?
I was able to do this before with older version .

One thing  I observed is ,After undocking panes , if I detach and move them to different location it let me click inside pane and accepts clicks.

What can be the reason Please advise.

How can I switch between 6 panes when they r connected and  undocked.

Please help.

	Hi; Perhaps the mouse messages are "eaten" by another window (e.g. PreTranslateMessage). Try using Spy++ or set a breakpoint into the docking pane tab mouse message handlers. Sometimes deleting the registry entries for the docking panes help...

	Oleg , I don't have handler for ondockingPanenotify I just do following things Step 1--------------------------------------------------------------------------- m_pDockingPaneManager = new CMDockingPaneManager(); ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Step 2--------------------------------------------------------------------------- m_pDockingPaneManager->InstallDockingPanes((CFrameWnd)m_pParent); ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Step 3--------------------------------------------------------------------------- CString strTemp; strTemp.Format("%sRunControlLayout%s",m_strTestPath.GetDataPtr(), FILEEXT_WINDOWDIM); if(""==m_pDockingPaneManager->LoadLayoutFromFile(strTemp)) { //RunControlLayout file does not found m_bNewLayout = true; //Message("\nNot Loaded from Layout file !!!\n"); } else { //RunControlLayout file found int iPanCt = m_pDockingPaneManager->GetDockedPaneCount(); //Total no of Panes count stored in file does not match to 6 if(iPanCt != PANECOUNT) { //Delete currupted file if (CMFile::IsFileExists (strTemp)) { //Delete file with wrong data DeleteFile(strTemp); } delete m_pDockingPaneManager; //Create temp object m_pDockingPaneManager = new CMDockingPaneManager(); //Install panes m_pDockingPaneManager->InstallDockingPanes((CFrameWnd)m_pParent); m_bNewLayout = true; } } ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Step 4 bool bRet; if(m_bNewLayout) { bRet =m_pDockingPaneManager->ConnectPanes(IDD_TRIG_CONTROL_STATUS,IDD_AutoRunStatusDlg); if(!bRet) { Message("CMWinRunManager :1ConnectPanes Failed\n", CMStatusMessage::MSG_INFORMATION,true); } bRet =m_pDockingPaneManager->ConnectPanes(IDD_DeviceCommControl, IDD_TRIG_CONTROL_STATUS); if(!bRet) { Message("CMWinRunManager :2ConnectPanes Failed\n", CMStatusMessage::MSG_INFORMATION,true); } bRet =m_pDockingPaneManager->ConnectPanes(IDD_ManualChannelsControl, IDD_DeviceCommControl); if(!bRet) { Message("CMWinRunManager :3ConnectPanes Failed\n", CMStatusMessage::MSG_INFORMATION,true); } bRet =m_pDockingPaneManager->ConnectPanes(IDD_HeaderAndData,IDD_ManualChannelsControl); if(!bRet) { Message("CMWinRunManager :4ConnectPanes Failed\n", CMStatusMessage::MSG_INFORMATION,true); } bRet =m_pDockingPaneManager->ConnectPanes(IDD_DisplayControlDlg,IDD_HeaderAndData); if(!bRet) { Message("CMWinRunManager :5ConnectPanes Failed\n", CMStatusMessage::MSG_INFORMATION,true); } } ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- and Pass docking pane manager pointer to all tab classes . CMDockingPaneManager(); class is wrapper on actual api's provided by code jock . Do i need to have handler for ondockingPanenotify ? Please advise
