If anybody has got a REALLY good docking window control (preferably free),
I'm VERY interested in hearing about it.
I'm doing a project where I need to have auto-hide windows tabbed to both
sides of the form. All the controls I've found are more or less useless
(i.e. they work, but are very hard to work with). The easiest and most
useful control I've found is Actipro's UI Studio which has a visual design
interface, and you don't have to keep all your docking content in separate
windows as with other controls. Unfortunately, there's a bug in it, so if
you've got a window docked to the right border of the form, it's "jerky"
when the pane expands.
In another answer to this thread, I've given a link to the free Weifenluo
DockPane Suite control which would be a perfect solution if it wasn't
because it's very hard to use and uselessly documented.
Has anybody got a good solution to how to create good auto-hide panels
(VS.NET style) on a form?
Cheers,
Johnny
