Set control MaximumSize for docking window

[Michael Lohr]

Hello,

I have a user control with a fixed size which I want to use as a docking window.
I have found a method to set the minimumsize (DockingManager.SetControlMinimumSize) but not the opposite
to set the MaximumSize.

Is it possible to restrict  sizing of a docking window to a predefined max width?

Thanks for your help.

Best regards,
Michael

Hi Michael, 

 

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support. 

 

We understand that your requirement is to set the fixed size for the dockingManager controls. If so, the reported requirement can be achieved by using the “SetFreezeResize” function or “FreezeResizing” property.  

 

SetFreezeResize – used to restrict the size of the particular dock window. 

 

FreezeResizing – Used to restrict the size for the whole docked window. 

 

Please make use of the below code example. 

 

Code Example[C#]: 

 

//To freeze resizing of all the control 

this.dockingManager1.FreezeResizing = true; 

(or) 

//To restrict the size of the user control. 

this.dockingManager1.SetFreezeResize(this.userControl11, true); 

//To restrict size of panel1 

this.dockingManager1.SetFreezeResize(this.panel1, true);
