I am looking for a simple solution to always have a visible asterisk on the tab for a document window that has been marked as modified.
Currently, when I create a document with a very long name and add it to the dock manager, the tab created for the document cuts off the name and adds three dots to the end. Unfortunately, when the document windows Modified property is set to true, the asterisk that is added to the end of the name on the tab does not get shown because the name gets cut off.
Example, name of document is "VeryLongDocumentName"
the tab will show -> "VeryLongDocu..." (even when the document window is marked as modified)
Using visual studio 2003, i notice that they handle this senerio by inserting the '...' into the middle of the name on the tab so that the asterik still remains on the tab at the end of the name.
Is there some magical way I can get this to work?
Thanks,
Greg
