RadDockWorkspace BackgroundImage not working

[JF]

Hi, I'm using the Telerik RadDockWorkspace of the CAB Enabling Kit in a CAP project, and when I try to use the BackgroundImage property of the Workspace, it doesn't work. Nothing happens, I still see the default gradient blue background of the Workspace.

Here is my code :

Telerik.WinControls.CompositeUI.RadDockWorkspace appWorkSpace = WorkItem.Workspaces.AddNew<Telerik.WinControls.CompositeUI.RadDockWorkspace>("myworkspace");

 

appWorkSpace.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;

appWorkSpace.DocumentTabsAlignment = Telerik.WinControls.UI.TabStripAlignment.Top;

appWorkSpace.DocumentManager.BoldActiveDocument = true;

appWorkSpace.DocumentManager.DocumentInsertOrder = Telerik.WinControls.UI.Docking.DockWindowInsertOrder.ToBack;

appWorkSpace.ShowDocumentCloseButton = true;

 

appWorkSpace.BackgroundImage = myImage; // whatever the image

Any ideas why it isn't working ?? I used to use a Workspace built with the Weifenluo dll and the BackgroundImage property worked properly with that workspace.

Any help would be appreciated !!

Hello JF,

Thank you for writing. 

The BackgroundImage property in RadDock is inherited from System.Windows.Forms.Control and currently it does not affect our RadDock. We consider that this feature will be useful for our clients and we decided to add it as feature request in our Public Issue Tracking System, so the community can vote for it. You can track its status and vote for it here: http://www.telerik.com/support/pits.aspx#/public/winforms/15544

I have update your Telerik Points for this request.

Let me know if you have additional questions.

Regards,
