I am currently evaluating the UIStudio and have a question about how to get menu merge to work.
First off, I am using .NET 2.0 beta 2 and the new MenuStrip control.
My child control for the DocumentWindow is of type UserControl. Both my UserControl and my MDI container contain a MenuStrip. Both MenuStrips have AllowMerge set to true. When I create the DocumentWindow it does not merge the UserControl's menu with the MDI container as expected.
Can anyone tell me what I may be doing wrong?
Is DocumentWindow checking to see if its parent control has IsMDIContainer set to true and subsequently setting its MDIParent property to the container?
