WinForms Navigation

Dockable Windows

 

Do your customers prefer a docked window UI? Want a straightforward and efficient way in which to introduce docking into your next WinForms application?

Once you start using the XtraBars Suite, you’ll find it easy to create a user interface similar to that found in Microsoft® Visual Studio (dockable windows).

Features provided by dock windows include:

  • Automatic docking to any container's edge.
  • Floating state support.
  • The ability to create tabbed windows.
  • Auto-hide functionality.
  • Visual Studio 2005 interface support. This includes drop position indicators using semi-transparent rectangles and a more straightforward dock window position manager using special glyphs that are displayed when dragging a window.
  • Content customization by simply placing any Windows Forms control onto dock windows (just like standard forms).
  • Behavior and appearance options for each individual dock window.
