I have used Command Bars Designer to design some command bars for my application. These load and display fine.

However, I would like to use some of the command bars in panes, rather than in the main frame, but still have all defined controls available for customization of any of the command bars, without having to include them multiple times.

Can you point me to an example, or suggest the easiest way to change the docking site of some of the command bars?

You can create these toolbars manually using Ids from designer:

pToolBar->GetControls()->Add(xtpControlButton, Id);

Here's what I did so I could continue to use designer, but it has some limitations (it can't be customized in-place, it can't be undocked/redocked, and commands control notifications come directly to the view):

In my view's OnSize:

    if (!m_toolscopied) {
        CXTPFrameWnd *pframe = (CXTPFrameWnd *)GetParent();
        CXTPCommandBars *pcmdbars = pframe->GetCommandBars();
        if (pcmdbars) {
            CXTPToolBar *ptbar = pcmdbars->GetToolBar(TBR_VIEW);
            if (ptbar) {
                CXTPControls *pcontrols = ptbar->GetControls()->Duplicate(TRUE);
                m_toolbar.SetControls(pcontrols);
                m_toolscopied = TRUE;
            }
        }
    }

I think it would good to be able to have multiple docking sites for a single CommandBars.
