Hi Srinivas,

Disabling opening of unpinned panes on mouseover can be accomplish with some custom code:
  1. Create a custom pane that inherits RadPane.
  2. Override the OnMouseEnter method
  3. Remove the base call. The only need is to change the visual state. The code should looks like the following snippet:
public class CustomPane : RadPane
{
    protected override void OnMouseEnter(System.Windows.Input.MouseEventArgs e)
    {
        this.ChangeVisualState(true);
    }
}

Now, you could use the custom pane instead of the RadPane. When a pane is unpinned, it requires mouse click to bring it front.

In order to disable the animation, I would suggest using the AnimationManager.IsAnimationEnabled attached property. Setting it to false will disable the animations in the RadDocking control.

To change the animation, I would suggest modifying the RadDocking theme and changing the animations there.

I modified the sample project - you can find it attached. Hope this helps.


Kind regards,

Hi Srinivas,

I am not sure I understand what's the requirement here. What do you mean by clicking on the autohidearea - clicking on the pane or somewhere else? If you want to restore the unpinned pane to a pinned state, you could set the RadPane.IsPinned property to true. In other words - this will pin the pane.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
George

Hi Srinivas,

As I wrote into your other thread you will have to add some custom code into the class that inherits from RadPane. Here is an example:
protected override void OnMouseUp(System.Windows.Input.MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
    base.OnMouseUp(e);
  
    if (!this.IsPinned)
    {
        this.IsPinned = true;
    }
}

Hi,
To get desired behaviour, we used a custompane(we modified a small behaviour of RadPane) its working properly , but when we do Automated testing UI elements are not identifying, please check the attached screenshot.
Can you please tell me how to enable the ATPs in custom control of my rad pane .
Regards,
Srinivas.

Hi Srinivas,

I tested this with UI Spy and a sample project using the same approach that you use. However the RadPane itself and its content were both identified by UI Spy. Could you give us more details how do you test this? Also what tool do you use?
