Size of windows and "docking" event

We still need to add an event for when a tool window state change occurs. That is one of the top things on the Dock controls TODO list.

For the disabling of resizing, we don't have that feature implemented yet. We could probably add it for the next maintenance release though.

Hi,
I found "only one docked window" solution for me and everybody who is interrested in it.
Because my windows could have only two states (Docked, AutoHide), I have tried this, and it works:

private void toolWindow2_ParentChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (toolWindow2.State == ActiproSoftware.UIStudio.Dock.ToolWindowState.AutoHide)
{
toolWindow1.State = ActiproSoftware.UIStudio.Dock.ToolWindowState.AutoHide;
toolWindow3.State = ActiproSoftware.UIStudio.Dock.ToolWindowState.AutoHide;
.
.
.
toolWindowN.State = ActiproSoftware.UIStudio.Dock.ToolWindowState.AutoHide;
}
}


And to resizing ... I am working on it. I am testing toolWindow.Parent.Size and toolWindow.Parent.Location properties set on toolWindow.SizeChanged event. It works on docked window, perfectly. But if it is in autoHideContainer, the window just "flies" :-) in application. If I find solution, I let you know.
PS: Sorry for my english :-/

Didn't want to start a new thread until I was sure. I want to be able to know if a tool window is docked or undocked. Is this what you're talking about?

Hi Anthony,

You can always check the ToolWindow.State property to know what the tool window's current state is. If you want to be notified when a tool window's State property changes, we still need to add an event for that. Please let us know which you were looking for.

In the meantime, you could use the above sort of workaround.
