Hi,
My intention was to dock a pane to it's original position after the pane was floated.
Most of the time it seem to work OK but when docking a pane to another pane (shown as tabs) and docking the pane to another position the app crashes. Maybe I did something wrong... so help from support would be appreciated (or someone else who knows exactly how it should be coded) I created a test to show what I mean.

Thanks a lot in advance
Edit: I used V13.4.0 for this test project

Hi, Aaron, I can't confirm that its bug. Its incorrect usage. You can't call SetLayout inside PaneActionDocked - just imagine that we dock 3-4 panes PaneActionDocked will be called for each of them but after your Setlayout some pointers won't be valid. Can you describe better what you going to make, maybe there is better solution. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Hi Oleg, OK, if this is incorrect usage of CreateLayout you are right it isn't bug
 I'm trying to create a layout that is predefined and user is allowed to float panes but isn't allowed to dock panes to another position. So the previous floated pane has to be docked to same position as before it was floated. Just as double clicking on pane caption, the pane is docked to it's original position. That is what I would like to have :)
Thanks a lot

It looks so weird for user - he moved pane to some location, see hatch rectangle where t will appear, release mouse and see it in wrong location. Guess better disable docking/floating or cancel PaneActionDocking for non original containers. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

It indeed looks weird but if I don't have any other options to work with... If I set .Options = PaneNoDockable the user isn't allowed to dock the floated pane anymore (also double clicking pane caption doesn't work) Could it be possible to implement property DockPaneToOriginalPosition? Any other solution is also welcome ------------- Product: Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) version 15.0.2 Platform: Windows XP (32bit) - SP 2 Language: Visual Basic 6.0 Zero replies is not an option.... |

maybe you can restrict only for examply to allow dock to Left / Right side of client part only ? Its not easy to formulate DockPaneToOriginalPosition - what if user float each panes first and then try to dock them in reversed order... what problem for appliaction if some panes will be switched ? ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Hi Oleg,
One of our customers don't want the users to mess around with their "layout" but wants to be able to float a pane and "do their thing". After "doing their thing" the user has to dock the pane back but if I allow this their layout will be changed all the time because users don't listen what their supervisers order them to do
 So I would like to dock the pane to the original position as before the pane was floated. I tried with above test project to restore the layout but it crashed. So all solutions are welcome  Thanks

| Maybe you can save the layout as a string and set all the panes to be non floatable when the first pane becomes floatable. When the pane is docked back you can set the panes back to floatable and load the layout. I hope this makes sense to you. :) |

Hi,
Thanks for trying my sample. Did you try to dock pane to another pane (showing as tabs) ? That is the problem !!!
Thanks

Yeah, that was really odd that. Been trying a few things but without too much luck yet  . I'm continuing to have a play though as i'm sure there must be something that can be done to enforce the panes to dock to an alternative pane if set. Might have to set up your own class to record the original layout and docked neighbours..

The following code seems to work quite nice for me. But I'm using 11.1.3 as codejock version:
Private Sub wndDockingPane_Action(ByVal Action As XtremeDockingPane.DockingPaneAction, ByVal Pane As XtremeDockingPane.IPane, ByVal Container As XtremeDockingPane.IPaneActionContainer, Cancel As Boolean)
Static blnSkip As Boolean If Not blnSkip Then If Action = PaneActionDragging Then Me.wndDockingPane.GetLayout paneLayout End If If Action = PaneActionDocked Or Action = PaneActionAttached Then blnSkip = True Me.wndDockingPane.SetLayout paneLayout blnSkip = False Cancel = True End If End If End Sub I haven't fully tested it. ------------- Product: Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) version 15.3.1 Platform: Windows XP (32bit) - SP 3 (on VMWare) Language: Visual Basic 6.0 |

Hello Aaron,
Have you checked the sample code yet? I'm curious if it has helped you. ------------- Product: Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) version 15.3.1 Platform: Windows XP (32bit) - SP 3 (on VMWare) Language: Visual Basic 6.0 |

Hi,
Thank you for looking at it
@Willowmaster: Your code seems to be working OK.
To Oleg: Why isn't this right way to store layout? Do have a better way to solve this problem?
Thanks
