    Redocking doesn't show the MdiContainer where to dock when maximized

     

    Way to reproduce:

    1. Undock a child form
    2. Put this ex-child form in full screen (maximized)
    3. Try to re-dock back into parent (Mdi container)

    Printscreen shows the blue rectangle which the dimensions are the dockable container that could accept the docking of this child-form.

     

    If I do the same thing in my VisualStudio environment, as soon as I start trying to dock back, I see the possible dockable container.

    Hi Sebastien,

    Thank you for writing.

    The reported behavior can be considered an issue and I have logged it on our feedback portal, here: FIX. RadDock - maximized floating windows should be restored to their Normal window state when started dragging. I have updated your Telerik points for the report. Additionally, you can subscribe to the item and be updated when its status changes.

    As a possible workaround, you can handle the Starting event of the DragDropService and change the WindowState of the dragged window: 
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
             
            DragDropService service = this.radDock1.GetService<DragDropService>();
            service.Starting += Service_Starting;
        }
     
        private void Service_Starting(object sender, StateServiceStartingEventArgs e)
        {
            FloatingWindow fw = e.Context as FloatingWindow;
            if (fw != null && fw.WindowState == FormWindowState.Maximized)
            {
                fw.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal;
                fw.Location = new Point(Cursor.Position.X - fw.Size.Width / 2, Cursor.Position.Y);
            }
        }
    }

    I hope this helps. Should you have further questions please do not hesitate to write back.

    Regards,
    Hristo
