Thanks for you reply,

I had added a button in the Rad Pane Tile bar but on click of that button can i get the object of rad pane containing button

i had tried following but i got radPane always equal to null.
Is there any way to get the instance of rad pane on button click.

private void CloseButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            RadPane radPane = (sender as FrameworkElement).ParentOfType<RadPane>();
            if(radPane != null)
                  radPane.Hidden = true;
        }

I had tried to add buttons in the header and Title of the RadPane using DataTemplate.

In the header it is working fine but in case of title Title i am not getting the value of
RadPane radPane = (sender as FrameworkElement).ParentOfType<RadPane>()= null
in the below code
and in case of header i am getting the value of
RadPane radPane = (sender as FrameworkElement).ParentOfType<RadPane>() as mycontrol as required.

Is there any way to get the instance of rad pane on button click.

private void CloseButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            RadPane radPane = (sender as FrameworkElement).ParentOfType<RadPane>();
            if(radPane != null)
                  radPane.Hidden = true;
        }

Hi Somesh,

I would suggest you to get the RadPaneGroup, instead of the RadPane using the  ParentOfType<RadPaneGroup>(). In this way, you will get the RadPaneGroup, and you could get the RadPane using RadPaneGroup.SelectedPane property.

I hope this helps.

All the best,

Thanks a lot.

Thanks for your reply George,
It worked fine when RadPane is not in Floating state,
but when we drag the radpane to make it float then it is not working as RadPaneGroup is not its Parent at this time.
Can you help me for this issue,
At floating state how can we get radpane on button click.

Thanks in advance

Thanks for your reply,

I found the solution to find Radpane on button click
by match button.Datatext.ToString() = RadPane.Title

This solved my issue.

Thanks,
