I'm running into an issue related to resizing dynamically created docks. I'm adding docks in a similar way to the My Portal example provided here http://www.telerik.com/DEMOS/ASPNET/Prometheus/Dock/Examples/MyPortal/DefaultCS.aspx. However I haven't been able to make my docks resizable. I tried adding "dock.Resizable = true;" to both the CreateRadDock() and CreateRadDockFromState() functions but that didn't work. I know with normal docks you have to set the behavior but I haven't been able to figure out how to do it dynamically. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Kyle,
To make the RadDocks in the My Portal demo resizable you need to simply set dock.Resizable = true; in the CreateRadDock method. Make sure that the dll you use is at least from Q1 2008 when the resize functionality was introduced in RadDock for ASP.NET AJAX. Please, also note that currently the RadDocks cannot be resized when they are collapsed or docked in a zone. You will need to move them outside their parent zone in order to resize them.
For your convenience I have attached the My Portal example with resizable docks.
Let us know in case you need further assistance.

Dear Sophy,
Is there any plans to allow dock resizing when the docks are in docked state soon?
Thanks.

Hi Philippe,
Our plans are to allow docks being resizable when docked in a zone and currently we are considering what is the most proper resize behavior of the docked RadDocks.
In RadDock for ASP.NET the RadDockingZones are rendered as table html elements while in RadDock for ASP.NET AJAX the RadDockZones are rendered as div html elements. This has serious implications on the dock's resize functionality when docked in a zone. That i why, we need to make a research and choose the best way to implement dock's resizing when docked in a zone.
All the best,

Was this feature ever implemented? It does not appear to be.

Hello Chris,
This feature was never implemented since there is an "easy" workaround that will make the dock resizable while docked into a zone. Here is the source code:
