SelectedDocumentChanged Problem.

Docking/MDI for Windows Forms Forum

Issue: I have 5 documents docked. I want to check if there is unsaved data on a form before a user moves on to another tab.

I am trying to use SelectedDocumentChanged and check for unsaved data flag, then set
the active document back to the previous one within the SelectedDocumentChanged event.

This works, but if a user then goes back to the same 2nd document they tried to go to the first time, again without saving, the event SelectedDocumentChanged does not fire. If I go to any different tabs it works fine.

Is there a a way to fix this? Is there a better/different way to cancel a document change?

Please Help! I have searched the forums a LOT on this and not found an exact solution yet.

Hi Josh,

I have an idea of why this could be happening, it's due to your change causing a nested SelectedDocumentChanged within the code that raises the event.

If you could supply a simple project that reproduces the issue, we can make a change in this area to see if it helps resolve it. Just email our support team with it. Thanks!
