Hi,

I need to get the screen coordinates for a floating RadPane so that I can determine which screen\monitor it is on.

Does anyone know the easiest way to get this value?

By the way remember I am using WPF and not WinForms.

Thanks heaps.

What I am actually trying to do is float a docked RadPane and move it to a different monitor\screen.

Below is the code I have so far.  Any ideas why this is not working or how I should be doing this?

pane.MakeFloatingDockable();
var screen = System.Windows.Forms.Screen.AllScreens[1];
var content = (FrameworkElement)pane.Content;
var point = new Point(screen.WorkingArea.X, screen.WorkingArea.Y);
RadDocking.SetFloatingLocation(pane.PaneGroup.ParentContainer, point);
RadDocking.SetFloatingSize(pane.PaneGroup.ParentContainer, new Size(content.RenderSize.Width, content.RenderSize.Height));

Just worked this one out. Need to use ToolWindow.

                        pane.MakeFloatingDockable();
                        var window = pane.GetParentToolWindow();
                        var screen = System.Windows.Forms.Screen.AllScreens[1];
                        if (window != null)
                        {
                            var content = pane.Content as FrameworkElement;
                            if (content != null)
                            {
                                window.Left = screen.WorkingArea.X;
                                window.Top = screen.WorkingArea.Y;
                                window.Width = content.Width;
                                window.Height = content.Height;
                            }
                        }
