Onload called every time the active document is changed

[theo]

Hi Guys,

I was wondering if there was any way to prevent calling the onload event every time the active document/tab in a DocumentHost in the DockPanel was changed. Basically preserving the control exactly as it is except that it's not in view when a different tab is selected.

The reason being we've got a lot of existing code on a lot of pages where the onload is used for certain functions like populating the cache, instantiating a domaincontext etc.

Any help/info would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Theo,

Please refer to this forum post for more detailed explanation how the RadDocking control is working.

Please let us know if you have further questions.

Hi Konstantina,

So the short and the long of it is no? There is no other control that will give me a similar result without loading/unloading it from the visual tree?

Kind Regards

Hello Theo,

Unfortunately, there is no work around for this. This is how the Docking control is implemented and this cannot be changed. The other suitable control which I can think of is the TabControl, but I am afraid it works the same way.

All the best,

Thanks, was hoping for better news but will try and find a way around it.

P.S. It's still an awesome control :-)

Kind Regards
