Floating Window Docking

[Vinnarasi]

Hi,
 
   I didn't want docking for the floating window(Tool Window). Is there any solution to do this?


With Thanks,

Hi Vinnarasi,

In order to have FloatingOnly Pane you will need to set the InitialPosition of its SplitContainer to FloatingOnly as shown below:

<telerik:RadDocking>
...
    <telerik:RadSplitContainer InitialPosition="FloatingOnly">
        <telerik:RadPaneGroup>
            <telerik:RadPane Header="Floating Only Pane" CanDockInDocumentHost="False" />
        </telerik:RadPaneGroup>
    </telerik:RadSplitContainer>
...
</telerik:RadDocking>

For more information about the different initial positions of the SplitContainer you can check the following article from our online help documentation:
http://www.telerik.com/help/wpf/raddocking-features-split-container.html#Setting_the_InitialPosition_of_the_RadSplitContainer_in_XAML

Hope this works for you. If you have any further questions let us know.

Hi,

Thanx for ur Reply. But setting the property "CanDockInDocumentHost" to false disables docking in the DocumentHost. But the issue is that I didn't want docking for the floating window(Tool Window).

Hi Vinnarasi,

What I can suggest you is to implement a custom docking logic which will hide the compass of the floating Panes. For more details please check the How to Implement Conditional Docking article from our online help documentation. I have created and attached a sample project which demonstrates the exact approach.

Hope this works for you.
