Topic: MDITabWindow Sample and SplitterWnd

Hi,

I'd like to have the same "drag out" functionality for MDI windows as in Visual Studio 2010.
I looked at the MDITabWindow sample to create floating/dockable MDI windows.

However, this does not work if the MDI frame has a SplitterWnd.
Method "DockFrame" destroys the old frame and creates a new one (of type CDockingFrameWnd).
All additional information in the old frame get's deleted, including the SplitterWnd member variable (which destroys it's child windows in the destructor).

I tried to connect the old view to the docking pane instead of creating a new one - without success.

Additionaly, MDITabWindow sample does not provide exactly the same "drag out" functionality as Visual Studio 2010. The dragged-out MDI windows do not have to be dockable in my case. Is it easier to solve the problem without docking panes?

Can someone help me?

Ingo.
