Currently I�m trying to create a c# 2005 mdi application with the CodeJock CommandBars. Is there any solution to create a taskpanel on the left side without using a docking pane ?

Here is VB6 code snippet:

Try addeing the following code to the CommandBars_RepositionAlignedControls event assuming you name your TaskPanel "wndTaskPanel":

Private Sub CommandBars_RepositionAlignedControls(Left As Long, Top As Long, Right As Long, Bottom As Long)

CommandBars.MoveAlignedControl wndTaskPanel, Left, Top, Right, Bottom

End Sub

and set dock style to left in IDE.

I�ve tried that C# 2005 code:

private void CommandBars_RepositionAlignedControls(object sender, AxXtremeCommandBars._DCommandBarsEvents_RepositionAlignedControlsEvent e)
{
CommandBars.MoveAlignedControl(TaskPanel, out e.left, out e.top, out e.right, out e.bottom );
}

But it does not work. The TaskPanel control is in front of the CommandBar control and the MDI child area is not affected ... ?

Ok, I see. This code will only work in VB6 as TaskPanel is a Visual Basic object. There is no way to extract a window handle from an active x control so this won't work in C#. As an alternative you can use the DockBar to host the TaskPanel or the code below, however it makes the window flash:

        private void CommandBars_RepositionAlignedControls(object sender, AxXtremeCommandBars._DCommandBarsEvents_RepositionAlignedCon trolsEvent e)
        {
            TaskPanel.SetBounds(e.left, e.top, TaskPanel.Width, e.bottom - e.top);
            e.left += TaskPanel.Width;
        }

I�m sorry to hear that
Will CodeJock provide .net controls in the near future ???

I�ve played around ad I didn�t found a good way to use commandbars with docking panes in vs 2005 ( c# ). If I eg. resize the window it flickers very very much !
Is there any way to use commandbars and docking panes with c# without these problems ?
Does anyone do this ?
