Hi,

currently the property 'FloatingWindowShowInTaskBarMode' affects all floating windows in the same way.

Is it possible to have one floating ToolWindow shown in taskbar while others are not shown? The reason is that I want to have one tool window floating behind the main window, while the rest is always on top.


Best regards, Tobias Lingemann.

Hi Tobias,

I'm sorry but there is no option for one tool window behaving differently in that respect from another.  Keep in mind that any floating host WPF Window can contain one to many tool windows, and in some cases, even a whole MDI area as well.  That's the main reason it's all or nothing with the option.

If you want a docking window to support being being the main window, then you'd want to use a document window instead of a tool window.
