Cannot select elements in WPF Designer if they are placed in RadDocking.DocumentHost (also the DocumentHost is not visible in Document Outline View)

[DR]

As the title describes, I have a user control with a RadDocking element, then a RadDocking.DocumentHost.

Any element inside the DocumentHost is not selectable in the designer, also the outline view only shows elements until the RadDocking element not the DocumentHost inside it.

If I don't use the DocumentHost  and place RadSplitContainer directly in the RadDocking selecting and outline is working as expected.

 

I use the last version I have access to: Version 2018.1.430

Hello Daniela,

I was able to replicate the described behavior in the 2018.1.430 version. That said, I also tested our latest version and with it I was not able to reproduce it. With this in mind, my suggestion would be to update to the latest UI for WPF version. 

As a workaround for the 2018.1.430 version, you can consider placing the elements that need to be selectable in the designer, outside the document host.

Hello Vladimir,

as this is a bug, is there any change for a regression fix?

Hello Daniela,

I am afraid that we do not have a practice of rebuilding old versions of the UI for WPF source code to introduce such changes. I can only suggest updating to our latest version or using the workaround I mentioned in my last reply.
