Hi all,

Is it possible to delay the start of a panel sliding out when the user hovers over pane icon when pane is hidden?

I am using the Docking Pane Control 13.4.2 with VB 6 if that changes anything. I've found the options for the AutoHiding but I seem to be missing where the delay for the start is.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

It should work with delay by default. Check our sample - maybe you already changed some property adn removed this delay.

Hi Oleg,

Thanks for the reply. I've tried commenting out the setting for the docking pane manager and it doesn't seem to slow it down. I've put the bit of code that I am using for setting up the docking pane manager can you cast your eye over it and see it you can spot something screemingly obvous that I have missed.

With DockingPaneManager
        .Options.ThemedFloatingFrames = True
        .Options.LunaColors = False
        .Options.SideDocking = True
        .Options.SetSideDockingMargin 3, 3, 3, 3

        .Options.AnimationDelay = -1
        .Options.AutoHideAnimationDuration = 250
        .Options.AutoHideAnimationInterval = 10
        .Options.AutoHideInactiveCollapseDelay = 10
        .Options.AutoHideMouseHoverDelay = 10

        .EnableKeyboardNavigate PaneKeyboardUseAll
        .TabPaintManager.OneNoteColors = False
        .PanelPaintManager.OneNoteColors = False
        .PanelPaintManager.Font.Name = "Tahoma"
        .PanelPaintManager.Font.Size = 8

        .PanelPaintManager.ShowIcons = True
        .PaintManager.DrawCaptionIcon = True
        .PanelPaintManager.RotateImageOnVerticalDraw = True

        .ScaleMode = xtpScaleTwip
    End With

I've uploaded a small video as well to show you whats happening, I'm not sure it will help.

Cheers

Adam
