Why does DockingPane work with TextBox but not with TaskPanel (and a lot of other controls)? Please run my sample and see my problem! uploads/20090220_040511_DockingPaneTask.zip - uploads/20090220_040511_DockingPaneTask.zip NO-Button on start: -Panes containing PictureBoxes -SetParent: Place the TextBoxes on the PictureBoxes --> Everything is fine. YES-Button on start: -Panes containing PictureBoxes -SetParent: Place the TaskPanels on the PictureBoxes --> If you click a TaskPanel, it looks like it looses its parent. The TaskPanel moves to somewhere else. I don't understand why!  With TextBoxes it would work fine even if I don't use PictureBoxes. TaskPanels without PictureBoxes: There's still the problem And please don't say, that I have to use Forms instead of PictureBoxes! This would cause other problems, I can not accept! ------------- Product: Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) Version 15.0.2 Platform: Windows XP (32bit) German - SP 2 Language: VB6 / C# 4.0 |

Hi Jean,
I don't say you have to use a form (I will write it
 ). It looks like the Taskpanel will be detached if you use pictureboxes. I did test with a form and it works OK (at least, as far I can see).Using a form is not that different from using pictureboxes...

Thank you for the super fast answer, Aaron!  But the Tab key doesen't work with forms. And this seems an unsolved issue: http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11854 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11719 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10148 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11854 .... We use PictureBoxes in the Panes and we can handle the disadvantages in our application. So I don't like to change it again...  This behavior can be reproduced so easily... Obviously the DockingPanes handles VB-TextBox different than TaskPanel (or other Controls)... But why?  ------------- Product: Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) Version 15.0.2 Platform: Windows XP (32bit) German - SP 2 Language: VB6 / C# 4.0 |
