UniformGrid-like arrange for RadDocking

[Mar]

Hi,

I'm intersted to make my RadDocking to order the inserted panes (in the corespond view-model) like the UniformGrid does...
For example let's assume I have 2 items in my collection of panes. I want them to be shown as two panes with the same width (the sum of their width is the total width of the RadDocking control), and when I programatically add an item to the binded collection, I want the first two items to be shown as their height is half of what they were, and in the second imaginary row I want the third pane to be shown with the same width as theirs.

If the user make some mess with panes, I want the dynamically added item to be docked to the right side. Is it a problem if I got pane that became a ToolWindow while there are another that are not ToolWindow at the moment?

Ho do I achieve that easily?

Thanks!

Hi Mar,

RadDocking does not provide the desired be you arrangement of the Panes by design - they arrange in DockPanel. However, what we could suggest you is to check RadTileView and RadTileList controls. They provide the possibility to create flexible layout similar to the desired one. Please, check their Silverlight demos (they are the same for WPF) in order to see the controls in action:

We hope this will help you.
