This might sound strange, but is it possible to have a pane manager inside a CWnd-derived pane? My pane must have a "auto-hide" pane-like window, so this is the reason I'm trying to do this:

Main Frame -> Pane Manager -> Main Pane 1

Pane1 -> MyWindow -> Pane Manager -> Pane A

I've tried this, but I cannot see my window. InstallDockingPanes, CreatePane and AttachPane succeed. Also, I do not get any notifications, such as XTP_DPN_SHOWWINDOW.

What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

Hi,

See DialogSample..

Think you need handle OnSize of your window:

void CDialogPanesDlg::OnSize(UINT nType, int cx, int cy)
{
CDialog::OnSize(nType, cx, cy);

CRect rcClient(0, 0, cx, cy);
RepositionBars(0, 0xffff, AFX_IDW_PANE_FIRST, 0, 0, &rcClient);

RepositionBars(0, 0xffff, AFX_IDW_PANE_FIRST, reposQuery, &rcClient, &rcClient);

if (m_wndView.GetSafeHwnd())
{
m_wndView.MoveWindow(rcClient);
}
}
