I have recently moved some of my software to use the UIStudio docking framework (I moved from DockableWindow). Since then I've had several problems in all of the moved applications.
1. It seems that there is some refresh issue in the new docking framework. It causes any list views anc list boxes to refresh completely (flash), which causes it to look really bad. I have an application with about 8 list views and list boxes on the same form. When I add an item to one using a popup dialog, they all flash. This used to not happen in the previous framework (I can get you 2 installers, one old, one new of my software, so you can see the difference for yourself).
2. Twice now, I was using the newly moved over apps, and the app just disappeared (crashed the .Net framework, I think) with no error messages, nothing. I can't reproduce this reliably.
3. Once in a while, if I have a lot of documents open in my applications, I start getting DC is locked type errors. I didn't catch the error or the stack trace last time, but next time it happens I will be sure to grab the stack trace.
