I need a pointer in the right direction if I could.

What would cause the panes to loose their forms?

i.e. After a loadstate, the panes are correctly in their positions its just they are all devoid of their forms

I used the samples for my template and cant for the life of me see why this would happen? - I cant get it to happen with the example code. Im searching line by line to see what differences I have made.

A pointer in the general area would be nice

[SOLVED] my mistake thought Id post just in case others find the same.

Incorrect Code


Private Sub DockingPaneManager_AttachPane(ByVal Item As XtremeDockingPane.IPane)

'If Form not create yet.
    If arrPanes(Item.id) Is Nothing Then
        Set arrPanes(Item.id) = frmpandid
           Item.handle = arrPanes(Item.id).hWnd
    End If
End Sub

As you can see I was assigning the Pane handle (item.handle) only when the array was not populated. On a loadstate the panes must be being deleted and recreated as it looses the handle.

Corrected code


Private Sub DockingPaneManager_AttachPane(ByVal Item As XtremeDockingPane.IPane)

'If Form not create yet.
    If arrPanes(Item.id) Is Nothing Then
        Set arrPanes(Item.id) = frmpandid
    End If

      Item.handle = arrPanes(Item.id).hWnd       '<<<<<<<<

End Sub
