Starting "Layout" for toolwindows - Docking/MDI for Windows Forms Forum

Posted 15 years ago by JoeP - Software Design Engineer, Microsoft

In the mainform load, I'm creating two or more toolwindows and I would like them to appear "tabbed" vs docked next to each other. Is the only way to do this via a layout file? Or is there a property to set on toolwindow? (I looked and couldn't find an obvious one.)

Thanks
jp

Hi JP,

In our sample app, look at the fileCreate3ToolWindowsAttachedMenuItem_Click event handler in DockForm. That shows exactly how to create tabbed (or "attached") tool windows.
