Floating Window Disappears

[Brian Schlatter]

Steps to reproduce:
1. Run the MDIDemo from your sample browser (found in the Docking Package).
2. Drag Notes 2 and make it floating.
3. Resize Notes 2 so that the height of window is as small as you can get it (ie. All you can see is the Notes 2 title bar).
4. Drag and dock to the bottom most area of the MDI Demo form (release on the mouse button when you're over the bottom most icon displayed while dragging).
5. Notice that the window has disappeared and there is no way to get it back.

So, this leads to the following question. Is it possible to set a minimum size to a floating window such that when a user resizes one it cannot get smaller than a set minimum size?

If this cannot be done is there any other solution to the problem?
