Hi Edson,

Please find the answer to your question in the following documentation article: Using the DragDropService.

That page doesn't answer the other person's question, which I also have..

Namely, how do I programatically turn off drag and drop on a radDocking (WPF)

even better would be a freeze/thaw on the RadDocking itself, but I've learned that Telerik doesn't do such things like users might need.. instead driving us to write half the control code ourselves..  :(

Hi Peter,

Please note that this thread concerns RadDock for WinForms rather than RadDock for WPF. I would kindly ask you to address your question in the appropriate forum section as this will allow our community to find the qestion and its respective answer more easily there.

As to the case of RadDock for WinForms, DragDropService is the way to cancel (disable) the drag and drop operations in RadDock and this is why the documentation article has been provided:

public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    DragDropService service = this.radDock1.GetService<DragDropService>();
    service.Starting += new StateServiceStartingEventHandler(service_Starting);
}

void service_Starting(object sender, StateServiceStartingEventArgs e)
{
    e.Cancel = true;
}

All the best,

This could be applied to the documentwindow of the raddock????

Hi Mariano,

This will work for DocumentWindows as well - it will not allow you to drag a DocumentWindow and drop it to another set of document windows. However, this approach will not prevent you from reordering DocumentWindows that are situated in one and the same sub container (DocumentTabStrip).

Let me know if you have additional questions.

For all the VB.net out there

Public Sub New()

        ' This call is required by the designer.
        InitializeComponent()

        ' Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call.

        Dim service As DragDropService = Me.radDockMain.GetService(Of DragDropService)()
        AddHandler service.Starting, AddressOf service_Starting


    End Sub

    Sub service_Starting(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As StateServiceStartingEventArgs)
        e.Cancel = True
    End Sub
