Strange Dock Resize on Header Click

[Kurt]

Hi,

I'm dynamically creating floating gadgets from Docks and almost everything is working as desired.  I noticed that when I click the header of a floating dock, the width of the dock grows by exactly 5px.  Strange, as I have no javascript tied to the event...  I do have some custom javascript that I'm using for saving the X,Y cooridnates of the Dock after moving from Client to Server Side, but even with that disabled, the behavior persists.  My code is as follows:

Protected Sub ReturnUserGadgets(byval user as string)
        Dim ds As New DataSet
        ds = odata.ReturnDS("sp_GadgetLoadByUser", "@GadgetUser", user)

        Dim i, cnt As Integer
        cnt = ds.Tables("Generic").Rows.Count

        For i = 0 To cnt - 1
            Dim dock As New RadDock()
            Dim widget As New UserControl
            widget = LoadControl(ds.Tables("Generic").Rows(i).Item("GadgetContent"))

            With dock
                .ID = user & "_" & ds.Tables("Generic").Rows(i).Item("GadgetName")
                .Title = ds.Tables("Generic").Rows(i).Item("GadgetName")
                .Skin = "Office2007"
                .UniqueName = Guid.NewGuid().ToString()
                .Width = CInt(ds.Tables("Generic").Rows(i).Item("GadgetWidth"))
                .Height = CInt(ds.Tables("Generic").Rows(i).Item("GadgetHeight"))
                .Left = CInt(ds.Tables("Generic").Rows(i).Item("GadgetX"))
                .Top = CInt(ds.Tables("Generic").Rows(i).Item("GadgetY"))
                .Resizable = False
                .Pinned = False
                .DockMode = DockMode.Floating
                '.OnClientDragEnd = "Moved"
                '.OnClientDragStart = "OnClientDragStart"
                .ContentContainer.Controls.Add(widget)
            End With
            RadDockLayout1.Controls.Add(dock)
        Next i

        ds.Clear()
        ds.Dispose()
        ds = Nothing
    End Sub

Hi Kurt,

My suggestion is  to remove the widget in the RadDock and try to reproduce the problem. If everything looks fine, I think that the reason for such behavior is that the widget gets resized and it resizes RadDock.
If you are unable to find the cause of the problem, please open a new support thread and send us a running project where we could observe it locally. Once we receive it we will do our best to help you.

Hi,

I took the content out and replaced it with just "Test" for a text property.  The resize behavoir persists.  I'll see if I can find a solution.  By the way, just wanted to tell you that your stuff is leaps and bounds better than Infragistics.

Hello Kurt,

I managed to reproduce the problem under IE8 - thank you for bringing it to our attention. We will fix this problem for SP1 that will appear in 2 weeks at latest.

Your points were updated.

All the best,

Wow, you guys are awesome.  Forgot to even say that I was using IE8-- I should have known since it doesn't do it in FireFox.  I was able to work around this anyhow by using a JSON/AJAX solution that gets the dynamic dock's height/width from the database and attaching a simple JS function to the OnClientDragEnd event.  It tries to grow, but aptly goes back to normal a split second later.  Good enough until SP1. 

Again, kudos.
