Remember positions of windows added in code

[Tony]

Hello, it's me again!

I will be adding tabbed documents and tool windows in code and of course it's straight forward to set those into default locations. However, if the user moves this tool window then closes it (fully disposed), later to open it again, i'd like it to open in the location it was last placed. Is this possible or will I need to save some settings to recall ?

thanks in advance
Tony

Hi Tony,

Thank you for writing.

The easiest way to achieve the desired behavior is to set the CloseAction of the ToolWindow to Hide. When the user would like to reopen the window, you can simply .Show() the ToolWindow instead of create a new instance. RadDock keeps the position of its hidden windows, so the ToolWindow will automatically appear exactly in the location it was closed.

I hope you find my answer useful. Let me know if you have further questions.
