I am evaluating your docking product and I must say it is quite impressive. I have evaulated 3 so far and your is the best IMHO.
Question 1
I have run into a small issue with serialization. I have a fairly simple DockSite that has a split container where one side has tool windows and the other has a workspace with some document tabs. When I serialize I can see in the xml that the whole layout has been serialized with the exception of the document tab information. Is this by design?
Question 2
In addition, when I deserialize I have to first create the tool windows before the layout would generate. Your documentation hints that I need to do this, I am okay with this, just wanted to confirm it.
Question 3
Finally, the workspace is never deserialized. Only the tool windows come back. Is there a way to have it deserialized with the rest of the layout? Basically I would like for the whole layout to be recreated the same way it was saved. It would be nice if all the Actipro components were deserialized then I could go back and add the content that was in each document. This way you control the layout while I am only responsible for the content.
Thanks again for making such a great product.
