Hi,

Is it possible to reset the dock settings as set in the vs designer, in case the user messed up the lay-out?
In an MDI scenario, I would like to reset the open childforms. Currently dock settings are stored in the registery (as xml)
Removing the setting does open the form in 'factory settings' (vs designer lay-out) when the form is re-opened, but I'de like to visually reset the form without losing it's current bound data...

Or is the only solution to close the mdi-child I'de like to reset?

Kind regards,
Alex

Why not just store some default settings you would like in a default_something.xml
and whenever you need to just replace settings from the current with that one, like that you could always customize what default actually means.

Hope this helps, if you have any other questions or comments, please let me know,

Best Regards,
