Greetings!
Is there a way to set orientation of the zones themselves within the layout? I'm trying to create a dashboard that allows users to select various layouts for the docking zones. One of these would be to have two zones, one on top of the other, that both have Orientation="Horizontal". This would be useful for two horizontal rows of small docks (such as two rows of gauges or pie charts).
Is this possible, and if so how? I hope this is something ridiculously easy that I've overlooked.
Thanks in advance!

The RadDockZone orientation property is related to the RadDocks arangement when the RadDock is in the zone.
An example related to the orientation property is available here:
http://demos.telerik.com/ASPNET/Prometheus/Dock/Examples/ZoneOrientation/DefaultCS.aspx
If this doesn't help you, please describe your goal in more details and I will try to help you.

Thanks for the response. The orientation property is not what I'm having the issue with and I have looked through the example to which you refer. The issue is that I can't seem to place one zone under the other unless the screen size happens to force a wrap. They always want to sit next to each other instead.
(D = docks and dashed lines = zones)
Goal -
----------------------
| D1 D2 D3 |
----------------------
----------------------
| D4 D5 D6 |
----------------------
Current result -
---------------------- ----------------------
| D1 D2 D3 | | D4 D5 D6 |
---------------------- ----------------------
Any suggestions are much appreciated!

The RadDockZone control is rendered as a Div on a client. So you can reorder them as you reorder divs on a client. The simpliest way to achieve your goal is to add zones in a table. Another way to achieve such a goal is to add them in a div and set their width to 100%, e.g.
.Hope this helps!

I was so focused on looking for properties in the Telerik space and CSS that I neglected the trusty old school HTML tricks :) I can get my desired result on a static page now, but the dynamic version is still problematic. I'll play around with it further and see what happens.
Thanks again!
