Hi,
I donwloaded the trial version of UIStudio (vers. 1.5) and did some tries specifically for those events fired when a window/toolwindows gets active (or focused), since the functionality of the my application depends very much on tracking which child control is currently active.
I read also another post here, date October/November 2004. In that post the Support suggestion was to wait for the next version of UIStudio (which I believe is one I'm trying) where the WindowFocused event was supposed to solve the issue.
Even using the test application provided, it seem the the WindowFocused events works properly for docked ToolWindows, while it's fired only once for a floating window (on activation). Same behaviour for OnLeave/OnEnter events if using UserControls.
1) Is there any other event or methodology to know when ToolWind, either docked or floating, is activated?
2) Also, any event that tells me when a ToolWindow is deactivated?
3) Another question: some competion products give the possibility of maximazing a toolwindow within it's "zone", by pressing a "maximize button" (in addition to the already present Close an Option buttons).
Maximazing a toolwindow automatically hides the others TW within the same zone; a restore button appears on the maximized one, in order to restore the TW to its original position.
I believe this is a very useful feature because gives the user the possibilty of quicly enlarging a TW without having to undock it.
Do you plan to implement such a feature?
We like your product but those focusing question (no, 1 and 2) are very crucial to us, thus we would very much appreciate a quick and opefully positive answer....which, for istance, would automatically mean we buy your product :-)
Thanks,
Domenico
