Visibility of the Dockguide icons. - Docking/MDI for WPF Forum

Hi,

How to set the Visibility for the dockguide icons for a particular condition ?

For Example : i have 2 docksite named Docksite1 having toolwindow1 and Docksite2 having toolwindow2 and docksite Docksite1 is linked with the Docksite2 that means toolwindow1 can be docked in the Docksite2 or toolwindow2 with the help of the Dockguide icons displayed in the Docksiite2.

But when io drag the toolwindow1 from the docksite1 then its also shows the dockguide icons in the Docksite1 that should noe happen.

As in the VisualStudio 2010 ,When i drag the toolwindow(Solution Explorer for the Visual Studio .net projects ) then its shows the dockguide icons for the linked docksite or the linkled toolwindows only not in the dragged docksite or the dragged toolwindow.

whenever i drag the toolwindow from the docksite then dockguide for the dragged docksite should not be displayed.

Hi Keshav,

Sorry but there is no option available to modify docking abilities in one dock site vs. another for a particular tool window. The only possible workaround to get what you are looking for is to maybe handle the WindowDragging event and in there, alter the various docking capability properties on that source DockSite (like CanToolWindowsDockLeft, etc.) to false temporarily until the WindowsDragged event fires. I haven't tried that though so I'm not sure if it would work or not, but it may do what you want.
