    Hi I have setup a raddock and have 7 toolwindows setup in autohide along the top. What I would like to do is be able to click on the tab and have the toolwindow dock into it's dock position, I can do it via a button event with the Dockstate.Docked command but would like to do it on the tab instead. I am using VB.NET Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.

    Hi Brahim,

    You can use the DockStateChanged event  to implement this functionality. Here is a solution:

    Private Sub radDock1_DockStateChanged(sender As Object, e As DockWindowEventArgs)
        If e.DockWindow.DockState = DockState.AutoHide Then
            Dim tabStripItem As TabStripItem = Me.radDock1.GetAutoHideTab(e.DockWindow)
            If tabStripItem IsNot Nothing Then
                tabStripItem.Click += New EventHandler(AddressOf tabStripItem_Click)
            End If
        End If
    End Sub
     
    Private Sub tabStripItem_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
        Dim tabStripItem As TabStripItem = TryCast(sender, TabStripItem)
        DirectCast(tabStripItem.TabPanel, DockWindow).DockState = DockState.Docked
    End Sub

    I hope you find this information helpful.

    Best wishes,
