Question

My point is - as I see in WeifenLuo DockPanel suite samples - there is used only MDI environment.

But if I want to use docking inside of a child-form, can I?

Was it helpful?

Solution

In the sample application you will see one of the docking modes available is DockingWindow. This mode does not use the built-in Windows concept of MDI.

To have multiple levels of docking you can use a DockPanel on each of the child documents in the main panel, this is entirely allowed.

Due to OS limitations, you may experience issues with resizing in these multi level scenarios. If so, enable the SupportDeeplyNestedContent property on the DockPanel.
