Problem Resetting A Panes Width

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hello 

I am trying to have a menu button reset a left side docked pane's width when clicked.  I have used the code from the NormalizeSplitters help for this and nothing happens.  Modifying the code to close and re-open the pane does actually have an effect, but I believe this is only due to it pinning the pane (when the user unpins it the correct width gets set).  How can I set this width without having to force the pane to be pinned and relying on the user to unpin it ?

' Find the pane and change its width to the default
Set objPane = objDockingManager.FindPane(1)
objPane.Close
' Resize pane width (100 height is not used as docked to left so uses all available height)
objPane.MinTrackSize.setSize 490, 100
objPane.MaxTrackSize.setSize 490, 100
' Remember previous SetSize settings
objDockingManager.RecalcLayout
objDockingManager.NormalizeSplitters
' Set the minimum and maximum sizes the splitter can move (100 height is not used as docked to left so uses all available height)
objPane.MinTrackSize.setSize 300, 100
objPane.MaxTrackSize.setSize 1000, 100
' Pin the pane (when the user unpins it will have the correct size now)
objPane.Select
