Keep a docked window (tab) in the same place

[Lou]

Hi,

I have a certain docked window that is always opened when my application is started (and cannot be closed by the user) and I'd like to always keep this window  at the left-most tab position in the document container. Any new documents should open to the right of this document. How would I do this?

Thanks,

-Lou

Hi Lou,

Thank you for writing.

You can re-dock the main window after another window is added:

DocumentWindow mainWnd = new DocumentWindow();
void button_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    DocumentWindow newWindow = new DocumentWindow();

    radDock1.DockWindow(newWindow,  DockPosition.Fill);
    radDock1.DockWindow(mainWnd, DockPosition.Fill);
}

We also have a feature request for pinning DocumentWindows. Feel free to cast your vote for it by clicking the Like button: http://feedback.telerik.com/Project/154/Feedback/Details/111931-add-raddock-add-support-for-pinning-a-documentwindow.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thanks Dimitar, I was able to use that technique to do what I wanted.

I added my vote for the pinning feature that you mentioned.
