Hi folks,

I am trying the sample for VB6 under Samples\CommandBars\VB\MDISample (13.3.1), when I add code:

 
Workspace.EnableGroups
 
after 
 
Set Workspace = CommandBars.ShowTabWorkspace(True)
 
The new documents I create, does not function properly and neither does the Workspace tab work correctly.  When I check with C# sample, it works just fine. What may be the reason?

 

Thanks

Sandy

The feature which I want to use in VB6 is described in your product preview http://codejock.com/products/commandbars/tour_60.asp?platform=com -

 

I added the Enablegroup in MDIForm_Load event of sample provided in Samples\CommandBars\VB\MDISample

Private Sub MDIForm_Load()

..

    Set Workspace = CommandBars.ShowTabWorkspace(True)

    Workspace.EnableGroups

..

..

End Sub

 

The results and problems, which I get is given below

1. Title Bar starts appearing when I click File->New
2. On Selection of Document 1 Tab, the complete Tab Control vanish

Yeah! It works just fine.
 
Though the trick is to call the LoadDoc after all the initialization such as Skins etc.
 
Thanks a lot for the tip SuperMario

I think there is a problem in my understanding and I noticed another problem with the popup that appears.
Lets say there are 3 Documents loaded initially.
When Document 2 is dragged, the Popup menu is displayed with Option: New Horizontal Tab group, New Vertical Tab Group and Cancel.
I create a Horizontal Tab group for Document 2
------
Now when I drag, Document 3, Option displayed are: New Horizontal Tab group, Move to Next Tab Group & Cancel
Actually I wanted a Vertical Tab group to be created for Document 3 which is not possible unless I bring all the documents together in Tabs, and start with New Vertical Tab Group. So, the result is, either I have all Horizontal Tab group or All vertical group.
 
I am not sure, whether I have to do anything programatically. Till now, I have not done anything in the Code for the popup

you can't mix them..all horizontal or all vertical....maybe you want docking panes instead

So we can have either Hor/Ver Tab Groups. Already I am using Docking panes for some other view parts.

When I see your sample application MDITabWindow I notice that I can make a window Dockable/Non Dockable from menu option. How do I achieve that for the forms. Do I have to create panes and do that or some flags need to be set?

I am still waiting for some solution to create tabbed workspace as shown in http://www.codejock.com/download/win64/MDITabWindow64.zip - http://www.codejock.com/download/win64/MDITabWindow64.zip  with docking features in VB6.. Please help me out

Thanks

That sample uses docking panes, it simply removes the document from tab workspace and puts it in a docking pane.
