DockingManager and SetCloseButtonVisibility

[Elsa C. Wood]

Hi,

I tried to implement the SetCloseButtonVisibility to prevent a user from closing one of the docked windows. The code is as follows:

private void dockingManager_NewDockStateEndLoad(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
dockingManager.SetCloseButtonVisibility(this.treeModel, false);
}

This control (treeModel) still displays an "X" and I can close it. What am I doing wrong?

Thank you.

Hi Elsa,

Thanks for your interest in Syncfusion products.

I have tested the issue you have reported and SetCloseButtonVisibility method is working as expected in our end. Please refer to the attached sample and let me know if you are able to reproduce this issue.

I tried the sample. First I got resx load error. I dropped sample textbox on the panel1 and then compiled. It started working but I still see close button on both the windows.

Hi Sameer,

You can use the following code,

this.dockingManager1.CloseEnabled = false;

to disable close button on the docking Manager. Kindly take a look and let me know if this helps.
