v11.2.2 (not tested with 12.0.0)

In an MDI-application it makes sense to have one pane manager for each frame class. Here I encounter a problem; how do I ctrl+tab between the frames using the Window-selector? It seems these key strokes are not handled correctly when multiple pane managers are alive.

Hi,

Don't enable xtpPaneKeyboardUseCtrlTab option. MDIClient will handle Ctrl-Tab manually.

A solution as always! :)

However, won't this disable the window selector when using ctrl+tab? :(

This is bugging me! Isn't there another solution? Perhaps there should be a static function which somehow merges all docking pane managers?

In the "Active Files" section I want to see my two frames, but I only see the current one. That makes no sense.

Any ideas?

You have implement it in your code.

Yes, I have two pane managers, but I don't know how to do it otherwise. My two frames need different pane-layout...

Is that bad design? Should I use one pane manager in the main frame instead, and hide/show the panes?

Thanks for your help!

I use two (or more) pane managers, but each is for a separate top-level window, so I don't have tab issues. I would recommend a single tab manager for a single frame.
