LMD Docking: Issues with UseSpace in large dynamic application

SPEKTRA Schwingungstechnik & Akustik GmbH Dresden

Hello,

we are using the LMD DockingPack since 1 month and all in all, we are very happy.

We are creating everything dynamically at runtime (the docksite, the dock panels and the components inside the panels).

We would like to disable the space zone by using the "UseSpace" property for the docksite. We are setting the property to false after creating the docksite but it seems, that there is no change. Our dock panels (that are created after) still have the auto-hide button and there is still the possiblity to get an empty space zone.

Is it possible to set UseSpace for a dynamically created docksite?

Is there any other property that does affect the property?

Thanks a lot!

Cannot reproduce the issue. Can you send small demo project to our support e-mail.

Thanks a lot for the fast reply.

I just created a small example and in this example it worked as expected... . :-)

Good to know!

Now I have to find out, why it is not working in our other project.

I definitely create only one single DockSite dynamically and set UseSpace to false immediately afterwards. Can this parameter be set to true again at some point?

I will try to find the difference between the small and the big project.

Well. I found the culprit.

The saved xml file with the locations was originally created with "UseSpace = true".

I haven't deleted this file since switching to UseSpace = false".

Now that I have deleted this file so that it can be recreated, everything works as expected.

The problem is solved for me. Thank you very much!

Ok.
