Hi to everybody!

I wish to be able to dock a docking pane in a CXTPTabClientWnd like if the pane where a MDI window.

And also I wish to be able to undock a MDI window from the CXTPTabClientWnd like if it where a docking pane and not a MDI window.

The MDITabWindow example is not enough interactive when undocking the MDI window (you have to right click the window and select Dockable), and also to dock it again in the client window, you have to right click and unselect Dockable), and of course you can't dock any docking window inside the client window.

You can do it with Visual Studio 2010 and the way to do it is really intuitive, and it is really nice because in a multi monitor environment, you can move the MDI window outside the application and in my case, it will help to my customers.

Any idea?

Thank you.

I tried something similar with activex (if I understand you correctly), but when dragging a window to the other monitor resulted for me in not being able to tab back to other the other windows. I'm not sure if that's important for you, but it was for me. I opened a support ticket for this.
