Docking window DocumentWindow tab strip add button.

[Hugues]

I can see that it is possible to add additional button the the CaptionElement of ToolTabStrip, but DocumentTabStrip does not seems to support that functionality.

I wanted to know if there is anyway i can add additional controls to an document tab strip.

 

Thanks

Hi Stefan. Thank it works now but i am running into an issue where i add a RadDropButtonElement to the tab strip. Using the default theme it works and display fine. But using the Visual Studio 2012 dark them it is getting displayed as a gradient color. I have attached an image that shows what i mean. Is there any way around that, i need to use that theme.
