Hello,
I have some problems when I trying to using docksite serialization/deserialization .
This is my docksite layout code.

<WorkSpace>
    <TabbedMdiHost>
        <SplitContainer>
            <SplitContainer>
                <TabbedMdiContainer>
                </TabbedMdiContainer>
                <TabbedMdiContainer>
                </TabbedMdiContainer>
            </SplitContainer>
            <TabbedMdiContainer>
            </TabbedMdiContainer>
        <SplitContainer>
    </TabbedMdiHost>
</WorkSpace>
When I executed serialization about this layout, I successded. But the opposite case I failed.

What can I do for fix this problem.
Following is serialization result.

<DockSiteLayout xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

Jay,

Sorry I'm not quite sure what you mean. However, please note that you should never make a XAML layout with empty "containers" like TabbedMdiContainer controls. I'm not sure if you just pasted that XAML as a simplfication of your layout or not.

If you think there is a problem with layout load, please make a simple sample project that shows the issue and email it over so we can see what is happening. Thanks.
