[Patch] -DockStateChanged question?

[The GridLock]

Hi,

I want to ask about the effect of this parameter (arg.newstate and arg.oldstate), I realize that it always returns 0.

Private Sub f_DocM_DockStateChanged(sender As Object, arg As DockStateChangeEventArgs)

dim r =arg.newstate 

dim r = arg.oldstate

end sub

More question: I added treeview to panel, then I hide all control in panel in dockstatechange event (hide to autotab), but treeview's scrollbar cannot hide, please check it.

Hi Khanh, 

 

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support. 

                                                 
We have checked your query “NewState and OldState value of args in DockStateChanged event in DockingManager is not working properly” and logged it as defect. The fix for this issue will be included in Volume 2 SP1 release which will roll out by end of July, 2020. Can you wait until official release ? Otherwise if you can share us your current syncfusion version , we will provide patch in that version on July  17, 2020. Please refer the below feedback for same. And for query “TreeViewAdv horizontal scroll bar does not hide when it’s parent panel is AutoHidden” and it is the default behavior of TreeViewAdv to show horizontal scroll bar when the width of nodes exceed TreeViewAdv width. Please refer the below screenshots for same. This is performed by hiding the panels in DockStateChanged event of DockingManager.

Great ! Niranjan .

Hello Niranjan ,

It seems mousedown on autohidetab does not work, can you quickly check it for me?

If this is true, I would expect a patch for syncfusion.tools.windows.dll version 4.6.

[Ninja]

Hi Khanh, 

Thanks for your update. 

We have checked your query “MouseDown event on AutoHideTab does not work properly” and this is the default behavior of DockingManager AHTabControl. The mouse down event will work for AhTabControl. This behavior is similar to that of the TabControlAdv control. Please refer the mentioned control for comparison.

Hi Niranjan ,

Can you use mouse down on autohidetab to drag docking(and form) or not? I tried but it didn't moved as this 

[Ninja]

Hi Khanh, 

Sorry for the inconvenience caused. 

We have checked your query “Mousdown event of AhTabControl does not work(which works only when EnableDragAutoHiddenTabs is disbaled) after recent patch” and we are able to reproduce the reported issue. And we will provide patch for the issue on July 22, 2020. We appreciate your patience until then.

Hi Niranjan Kumar,

I have been waiting for the highlight baritem feature on the contextmenu (vertical autohidetab) but it doesn't seem to be added yet

Can you tell me when it can be updated? I see other themes still working but metro doesn't!

2nd question: after float my panel, basically I have 2 windows (form and panel), I want to hide the form only. If my form's property: formborderstyle.fixed3d ... then no problem will happen. But if my form is set to formborderstyle.none now the statement this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized will hide both.

How do I solve this?

[Elakkiya Muthukumarasamy]

Hi Khanh, 

Sorry for an inconvenience caused.  

Query1: highlight baritem feature on the contextmenu (vertical autohidetab) not added 

We could not track the feature in your incident history. So could you please share the feedback link , if you were reported the feature “highlight baritem support on the contextmenu (vertical autohidetab)”. Also, please provide us the issue reproducing sample and video, It would be helpful for us to analyze and provide you the prompt solution on this 

 

Query2:While having  2 windows (form and panel), I want to hide the form only. 

Can you please confirm us which form you are  using, we have SfForm, MetroForm, Office2007Form, Office2010Form. It would be helpful for us to analyze and provide you the prompt solution on this.

Elakkiya

Hi Elakkiya,

from this post, I Need to highlight bar item in context menu in in DockingManager (it worked with other themes except metro)

in 2nd question, I am using system.form and dockingmanager.

with the following settings:

• Formborderstyle.none
• Form.showintaskbar = false

then I used the rightclick event to trigger minimization with code:

• this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized

Now both the form and the panel are minimized (but normally I see only form -> minimized , and the panel is still floating)

hi Bharathi,

query1: Please watch my video! 

You see that the baritem is highlighted with other themes, but the first metro theme doesn't show

query2:

I want to hide the form but still float panel (is there any way?)

I did it before but after changing some settings now the code hides both.

I have more questions: 

query3: from my video you can see when I change the darkgray theme, the caption backcolor doesn't change (still dark-blue), I want to ignore this (so the color sync with the theme is darkgray) 

how i do this?
