Placing Docking control in another Docking control

[Claudio Giorgio]

Hi,
if I place a Docking control in another Docking control i recive (only at runtime) this error:
"Placing Docking control in another Docking control is not supported in the current version. You can disable this error by setting the AllowUnsafeMode property of the inner RadDocking control."

When are you planning to implement and release this feature?

Thanks.

Hi Telerik Team,

I have error "Placing Docking control in another Docking control is not supported in the current version. You can disable this error by setting the AllowUnsafeMode property of the inner RadDocking control." when I am using version 2013 Q2.

 

I am using Telerik RadTabControl within Telerik RadDocking in WPF. There is no property AllowUnsafeMode on Telerik RadTabControl to avoid the error.

Appreciate your advice. Thanks.

Hi Telerik Team,

I found the issue in my code. It does have a Telerik RadDocking within a Telerik RadDocking caused the issue. Workaround set AllowUnsafeMode = True.

If I upgrade my Telerik package, does it fix my issue without set AllowUnsafeMode = True?

In which version does the fix in?

Thanks.

Hello Tommy,

Nested Docking scenarios are officially supported by RadDocking with the Q1 2014 release version. If you upgrade to that version there is no need to use the AllowUnsafeMode property. Some more detailed information you could find on the following link from our documentation:
http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/wpf/controls/raddocking/features/nesteddocking

Hope the provided information will be helpful for you.
