Form not loading properly into Dock

[Denis Cilliers]

I have an issue with loading forms in the Dock

When I use MDI they load poroperly. On being told to drop the MDI overhead the forms load off to the bottm right of the screen
Please help what is wrong with the code. 

MDI loader

Shared Sub dockMDIForm(ByVal mydockableform As Form)

        'Check if form already in Dock
        Dim hw As HostWindow = frmMain.radDockMain.GetHostWindow(mydockableform)

        If Not hw Is Nothing Then
            'Just show the window
            frmMain.radDockMain.ActiveWindow = hw
        Else

            'Create a new instance of the Form & add to dock
            mydockableform.MdiParent = frmMain
            mydockableform.Show()

            'frmMain.radDockMain.DockControl(mydockableform, DockPosition.Fill, DockType.Document)
            hw = frmMain.radDockMain.GetHostWindow(mydockableform)

            frmMain.radDockMain.ActiveWindow = hw

        End If

    End Sub

Document loader

Shared Sub dockForm(ByVal myForm As Form)

        myForm.FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.None
        myForm.TopLevel = False
        myForm.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized

        'Check if form already in Dock
        Dim hw As HostWindow = frmMain.radDockMain.GetHostWindow(myForm)

        If Not hw Is Nothing Then
            'Just show the window
            frmMain.radDockMain.ActiveWindow = hw
        Else
             'Create a new document
            Dim docWindow As DocumentWindow = New DocumentWindow()
            docWindow.Controls.Add(myForm)

            'add to Dock
            With frmMain.radDockMain
                .AddDocument(docWindow, DockPosition.Fill)
                .ActiveWindow = docWindow
            End With

            docWindow.DockTabStrip.PerformLayout()
        End If
    End Sub

Hi Denis,

I answered the question in the support ticket that you have regarding the same topic. In case our community is interested in the answer, it is the fact that you have to Dock the form to Fill:

Dim myForm As FrmPlain = New FrmPlain()
myForm.Dock = DockStyle.Fill

I hope this helps.

Hi Nikolay

Sorry I cant read :( 
I used the code from the ticket box and not the attached project, when I opened your project I found the fill in it.

Opps my bad....

Thanks for the help
