How control expanding/collapsing of docked container

[Abhishek]

Hi,

I am looking to control expanding and collapsing of the docked splitcontainer. This is the structure of my splitcontainer - 

<telerik:RadSplitContainer IsEnabled="True" Width="400" InitialPosition="DockedLeft">
                    <telerik:RadPaneGroup>
                        <telerik:RadPane IsActive="True" IsEnabled="True" IsSelected="True" CanUserClose="False" IsPinned="False" Content="{Binding}" telerikAnimation:AnimationManager.IsAnimationEnabled="False"/>
                    </telerik:RadPaneGroup>
                </telerik:RadSplitContainer>

I want to keep the Pane IsPinned="False" and just control the functionality like hover on the splitcontainer from click of a button.

Appreciate your help. Thanks.

Hello Abhishek,

You could easily achieve the desired by changing the IsActive property of the desired Pane by using a button click. Once the Pane is activated it will expand automatically and stay opened as long as it is the active Pane of the Docking control. Check the attached sample project which demonstrates the exact approach.

Hope this will work for you.
