Using MDI RadWindows in xbap application

[xu jundong]

Hi,

I'd like to implement an MDI-like workspace in xbap application, is there any container for multiple RadWindows?

In my xbap application, I'd like the content-region would hold multiple RadWindows which can be dragged around, minimized, maximized, etc.

For dragging, I'd like it so that the windows themselves cannot be dragged outside of the mdi-window content region.

I'd appreciate any help/sample solution on how to implement this.

My xaml code is as follows:I have try to create MDI RadWindows in container1, but failed.

        <telerik:RadDocking Name="radDocking1" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1" AllowUnsafeMode="True">
            <telerik:RadDocking.DocumentHost>
                <telerik:RadSplitContainer InitialPosition="DockedLeft" Name="container1" HorizontalContentAlignment="Left">
                    <telerik:RadPaneGroup Name="editGroup">
                    </telerik:RadPaneGroup>
                </telerik:RadSplitContainer>
            </telerik:RadDocking.DocumentHost>

            <telerik:RadSplitContainer telerik:DockingPanel.InitialSize="150,150" InitialPosition="DockedBottom" Height="250">
                <telerik:RadPaneGroup Name="listGroup">
                    <telerik:RadDocumentPane Title="Error Message" Name="errorMSGPane">
                        <telerik:RadDocumentPane.Content>
                            <TextBlock Name="tberrorMSG" Foreground="Red"> </TextBlock>
                        </telerik:RadDocumentPane.Content>
                    </telerik:RadDocumentPane>
                </telerik:RadPaneGroup>
            </telerik:RadSplitContainer>

        </telerik:RadDocking>

Hi Xu Jundong,

 Unfortunately we don't have control that implements this functionality out-of-the-box. As you already noticed we have a Docking control that almost accomplishes the task, but it doesn't support minimize and maximize. We have a Window control that is just a single window and support minimize and maximize. It might be more appropriate for your case, but you will need to implement the MDI behavior yourself.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes,

Thanks for your answer!

That's really help. I will use a Docking control instead.
