Hi Gislain,
Several months ago I was facing the same problem. I had to find framework
for docking controls and menus. I have evaluated both of them, but neither
fit my needs. Unfortunately I can't remember my issues that I had. What I
remember is that DotNetMagic didn't have status bar with the same style as
the other controls. I don't know how is it now, but I found it kind of silly
to have application with OfficeXP look and feel with old fashioned status
bar. What I didn't like about this controls back then was that the toolbar
is actually
a wrapper arround windows' rebar control.
Anyway, evaluating several of the frameworks out there I finaly desided to
go with DevComponent's DotNetBar framework.
I'm happy with it so far. It has everything I need + really good support.
