Hi Dharmesh,

At the current time, you'd have to modify the default template of TabbedMdiContainer to add in your image. If you are a WPF Studio customer, there will be a link to download the default styles and templates from your Organization Purchases page.

We'll add a TODO item to look into possibly adding some other way to append content there in the future.

As for handling clicks, you'd want to wrap the image with a button and use a command on the button. Then handle the button's command in your Window.

I'd like to do something similar to the above. I'd like to add my own controls to the area Dharmesh circled, the space between the tabs and document drop-down button (for example, a text box or a "New tab" button). Is this possible?

Hi Frank,

Yes, the information in our previous reply still is appropriate. You would have to clone our default template of TabbedMdiContainer and modify it to add in your additional UI. Then you would put an implicit Style with the Template you created in your app's Resources so it applies throughout your application.
