Properties palettes similar to Illustrator

[Nick Howard]

Hello,

I have an application where I want to create some properties palettes (similar to Illustrator). I don''t want to use the PropertyGrid. I want to create my own. I''m guessing I would need to create a new form for each palette. If I were to do it that way, could I make them dockable? Or how else could I do it.

Thanks for any help, I really appreciate it.

Thanks,
Nick

Hi Nick, Please refer the following KB article to dock a form using docking manager: How to dock a form within a host form? We appreciate your interest in using Syncfusio Products. Thanks, Vijay

Hi Vijay, Thanks a lot for your help. I''ve got a dumb question for you (which may not have anything to do with Syncfusion). I have a menu option to open the properties form. If I click the menu option again how can I check to see if it is already open so I don''t open it again? Similarly, if I close the properties form and then click the menu option how can I then open it again? Thanks for your help.

Hi Nick, Sorry for long delay in getting back to you. Here is the sample which illustrates the functionality to create the form only if it is not already exists in the Main form.
