Oleg wrote in another thread:

"the better to use CFormView instead CDialog...."

So it is possible to embed CView derived Objects into docking panes?

That would be very good news.

Oleg, is it possible to write a little how to or to point out the biggest issues one has to keep in mind?

Would be GREAT!

1. Create Dialog template and CFormView derived class - CSimpleFormView.

2. Create New Pane

m_paneManager.InstallDockingPanes(this);

CXTPDockingPane* pPaneProperties = m_paneManager.CreatePane(
PANEID_FORMVIEW, CRect(0, 0,210, 120), dockLeftOf);

3. Attach it.

LRESULT CMainFrame::OnDockingPaneNotify(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
if (wParam == XTP_DPN_SHOWWINDOW)
{
CXTPDockingPane* pPane = (CXTPDockingPane*)lParam;

  if (!pPane->IsValid())
  {
   if (m_pFormFrame == NULL)
   {
    m_pFormFrame = new CFrameWnd;

    CCreateContext context;
    context.m_pNewViewClass = RUNTIME_CLASS(CSimpleFormView);
    context.m_pCurrentDoc = NULL;

    m_pFormFrame->Create(NULL, NULL, WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|WS_CLIPCHILDREN|WS_CLIPSIBLINGS, CRect(0, 0, 0, 0), this, NULL, 0, &context);
    m_pFormFrame->ModifyStyleEx(WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE, 0);
    m_pFormFrame->SendMessageToDescendants(WM_INITIALUPDATE, 0, 0, TRUE, TRUE);
   }

   pPane->Attach(m_pFormFrame);
  }

  return TRUE;
}
return FALSE;
}
