Docking within tabs

[Paul]

I have created a UserControl which consists of the RadDocking control.  Within this I place the RadPaneGroups and subsequent RadPanes.  Each RadPane contains a View, to which a ViewModel is created.  The problem occurs when I place the upper most UserControl, with the RadDocking, in a tab.  The tabs are dynamically created very similar to your expample with RadTab.  Each time I switch tabs I see the Views being reinstantiated and in turn the ViewModel and Model.  When I remove the upper most UserControl, with the RadDocking control, this does not occur.  What is best practice of placing the RadDocking control within tabs without encountering this behavior?

Thank you

Hi,

Setting the IsContentPreserved property of the RadTabControl to true should prevent the RadDocking control from reloading. If this doesn't help, could you please prepare us a sample project that demonstrates the issue? This would help us to better understand what the problem is.

I replaced the WFP TabControl with RadTabControl and set the IsContentPreserved property as you advised.  This did solve my problem.

Thank you.
