This is a stupid problem to have, but here goes.
I wanted to make like an Outlook-looking app. Multiple splitters, panes,
etc.
If I ...
1. Take a Form, add a TreeView, dock it Left.
2. Add a Splitter, dock it Left.
3. Add a ListView, dock it Full
....I have no problems, but If I...
1. Take a Form, add a Panel, dock it Left.
2. Add a splitter, dock it Left.
3. Add a secon Panel, dock it Full
I've got problems. :S
The only difference between the two procedures described above is using
Panels instead of TreeViews and ListViews.
The problem is that the second panel fills to the size of the entire Form,
not to the size of the splitter. The second panel seems to ignore the
splitter. The splitter seems to size the first panel correctly. I added
buttons to the second panel at (0,0) and they show up on the left side of
the form, rather than the immediate right of the splitter. I've brought the
second panel to the front and sent it to the back just to see the
difference.
Can anyone tell me why this is?
I feel like a dunce, not being able to figure this out becuase I've been
doing VB.Net for years and it's frustrating to be stuck on something so
stupid.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanx in advance,
WALDO

Also, if a control that you have docked is hidden behind another
control try selecting it in the dropdown at the right and then choose
Bring To Front from the Alignment menu. Do this for any controls that
are not docked properly. This will often correct the problem.
One more thing... Not only Bring to Front or Send it to Back, the order
that the controls are stacked (from bottom up) states the order that
they will be docked.

That was it. The order in which I put them on the form was screwing with my
docking.

I have a form with 3 sections in a vertical arrangement. It's starting to

Right now, I have 3 panels: the top panel I want fixed at 75 pixels high,

We are playing around with using the splitter on a form and want to do the
following:
1. On the left side of the form will be a tree view.
2. To the right of that tree view would be a splitter.
3. To the right of that splitter would be a second tree we call a palette.
4. To the right of the palette would be another splitter.
5. To the right of that splitter would be our "content area".
We are trying to find a way to allow this...

Has anyone really gotten the Docking and Splitter Bars to work for anyting
but the simplest application for two controls and one splitter bar filling
the whole form? If so, can you enlighten my on HOW! I even tried creating
background panels and docking them with the controls on the panels but the
docking order seems to be random! Another useless control from Microsoft I
think!

I'm creating a C# application, and want to use docking windows. However,
I want the docking windows to look like the docking windows withing
VS2005, with a title bar, close button, etc... When the user clicks and
drags the docking window, it'll un-dock, and open in a tool window, and
also allow the user to re-dock it elsewhere...
Any ideas where I can go to look up how to accomplish this?
Thanx!

Hello,
I've spent the better part of the day going over code and thinking and
have come up with the following docking method that works perfectly.
At this point, my brain is about to explode and I was wondering if
someone can help me figure out the calculations for right and bottom
docking:
note: lRelOffsetLeft and lRelOffsetTop are calculated on mousedown
(location of mouse in relation to top and left of picturebox)

I need to develop a "docking station" simulator for Apple IPod in .NET.
The PC acting as a development station connects to the IPod docking station
using a parallel port.
Where is this software available ?
Where can I find the Ipod docking station specs?
as an alternative, is a "docking station" library available in .NET?
thank you very much

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
