Transparent and Non Transparent ToolWindow

[Nitzan]

Hi, I need to create the both types of windows Transparent and non Transparent. The RadPane pane.DataContext  contains appropriate information about the type of window to be created for this RadPane.

 

 

I see in https://www.telerik.com/forums/hosting-a-win32-window-in-a-wpf-floating-tear-off-tab that it was impossible in 2012, but may be do you have any updates for this issue?

How I can implement this?
Thanks

Hi Nitzan,

You can now use the ToolWindowCreated event of RadDocking where you can get information about the Pane and the ToolWindow as shown below:

private void Docking_ToolWindowCreated(object sender, ElementCreatedEventArgs e)
{
    var pane = e.SourceElement as RadPane;
    var toolWindow = e.CreatedElement as ToolWindow;
}

The event is raised before the window is shown, so you should be able to conditionally set AllowTransparency as required.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Kalin
