PrimaryWindowChanged is not fired when right clicking

Hi Kasper,

Thanks for reporting this issue, we have corrected it for the next maintenance release.

Seems to work great in the latest release. Thanks guys!

Hi guys,

Another situation where this is not happening seems to be when calling TabbedMdiContainer.SelectNextWindow() and TabbedMdiContainer.SelectPreviousWindow(). Could you please look into this for the next maintenance release? :)

Hi Kasper,

Would you please send a sample to our support address containing the bug so that we can debug and make sure to fix the issue to fit your needs?  Please rename any zip file to txt to avoid it being marked as spam.

I have absolutely no special needs for this particular case - I simply want the PrimaryWindowChanged event to be fired when calling SelectNextWindow/SelectPreviousWindow, as expected. There are no special circumstances causing this, so my guess is that it should be easy to spot the problem when you have the Docking controls code in front of you. However, in the interest of speeding up the process, I will e-mail you a sample project with the two lines of code I had to write to reproduce the problem :)

Hi Kasper,
We looked at your code and there are a couple things. First, we recommend that containers should never be accessed directly as they are created and destroyed dynamically. Because of this, the SelectNextWindow method is more internal and should have been marked so. Right after it is called internally the caller of that method activates the next window, which you were trying to do. However if you do wish to continue to use the container in the way you are, the following code is more of what you're looking for:

var dockingWindow = MainTabbedMdiContainer.SelectNextWindow() ?? MainTabbedMdiContainer.Items[0] as DockingWindow;

if (dockingWindow != null)

	dockingWindow.Activate();

 
This should achieve the result and have a wrapping effect that returns to the first tab after the last is reached.

The code you provided me with seems to work very fine, but if there's a better/more correct way of doing this, then please do let me know :)
