Hi All,

I'm trying to display a number of MDI windows without their title bar. My main window contains the following XAML code overriding the template for docking:DocumentWindow

XAML:
-----
<DockPanel Width="Auto" Height="Auto">
                <docking:DockSite Name="MainWindowDockSite" DockPanel.Dock="Left" CanToolWindowsDrag="False">
                    <docking:DockSite.AutoHideLeftContainers>
                        <docking:ToolWindowContainer>
                            <docking:ToolWindow x:Name="toolboxToolWindow" Title="Toolbox" CanDockRight="False" CanDockTop="False" CanDrag="False" CanDockBottom="False" CanDockLeft="True" CanClose="False" CanBecomeDocument="False" CanAutoHide="True" HasOptions="False">
                                    <ContentControl Name="WDLMenu" MinWidth="150" />
                            </docking:ToolWindow>
                        </docking:ToolWindowContainer>
                    </docking:DockSite.AutoHideLeftContainers>
                    <docking:Workspace>
                        <docking:StandardMdiHost Background="Peru" Name="MdiHost">
                            <docking:StandardMdiHost.Resources>
                                <Style TargetType="docking:DocumentWindow">
                                    <Setter Property="Template">
                                        <Setter.Value>
                                            <ControlTemplate TargetType="docking:DocumentWindow" >
                                                <ctl:ResizableContentControl  BorderBrush="DarkRed" Width="Auto" Height="Auto" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" CanAutoSize="True" BorderThickness="4" Content="{TemplateBinding Content}" ResizeMode="Both" />
                                             </ControlTemplate>
                                        </Setter.Value>
                                    </Setter>
                                </Style>
                            </docking:StandardMdiHost.Resources>                        </docking:StandardMdiHost>
                    </docking:Workspace>
                </docking:DockSite> 
                
            </DockPanel>
In the code behind module I create the document window as follows
DocumentWindow toolWindow = new DocumentWindow(MainWnd.MainWindowDockSite, name, title,
              new BitmapImage(new Uri("/Resources/Images/TextDocument16.png", UriKind.Relative)), myCtrl);
myCtrl.MinWidth = 100;
myCtrl.MinHeight = 100;
toolWindow.Activate();
myCtrl is a UserControl that also handles the window dragging.

Whenever I try to drag the sizing handle, my UserControl window is being resized at a faster rate than the outside MDI window.

Could someone please give me a hint to what I'm doing wrong

Thanks for your help

Andreas

Hi Andreas,

Are you sure you are setting e.Handled = true in your sizing routines?

If that doesn't help, for complex questions like this that require a repro, please always just email us with a simple sample project that shows the issue.
