Hello,

Not really a bug, but can be problematic (DockingPane v8.0):

I create a program with 2 panes, then I use DockingPaneLayout to save its layout into the registry. I modify my program to create only the first pane. When a launch the program again, the second pane is still created (I use the DockingPaneLayout to load my panes layout). I have seen in source code that Load function create panes from register values and doesn't take into account the fact that only one pane has been created.

Thanks a lot,

Magnetic core

I have also noticed this problem. Along with another problem when you call LoadState on the DockingPaneLayout. If I create Pane A and Pane B and distribute my application, then decide to modify my application to create Pane C, when LoadState gets called it does not load Pane C into the MainFrame. I guess since it isnt in the registry then it knows nothing about it so it doesnt create it.

You must programmaticaly control this:

CXTPDockingPaneLayout layoutNormal(&m_paneManager);
if (layoutNormal.Load(_T("NormalLayout")))
{

// check if we have 3 stored panes
  if (layoutNormal.GetPaneList().GetCount() == 3)
  {
   m_paneManager.SetLayout(&layoutNormal) ;
  }
}
