Hello everyone! These days, I am doing some research with the RadDock control and encountering a difficulty when I'm trying to completely remove the borders and visually merge individual DockWindow elements. As far as I can see, achieving this requires removing some additional spitter elements, but I haven't had much success so far.

I would appreciate your help with this.

Kind Regards,

Simeon

Hi Simeon,

Thank you for the additional details.

You can try setting the SplitterWidth property of the RadDock to 0. This way the splitter will not be visible. Later on, you can increase the value of this property is resizing functionality is required.

 this.radDock1.SplitterWidth = 0;

Hello Simeon,

I appreciate your interest in our RadDock control for WinForms.

Upon reading your reply, I am unsure which border needs to be removed and how the windows need to be merged. Can you send me images of the visual look you are trying to achieve? This way I can better understand it and try to find a suitable solution for you.

I am looking forward to your reply.

Hello, Dinko,

Thank you very much for your replay!

I marked in red the borders between the ToolWindow elements of the RadDock control, so please find the attached screenshot.

To clarify, my goal is for the ToolWindow elements to be arrangeable, but once arranged to be visually merged. I am aware that there are splitter elements there that are used for toolwindows resizing, but my intention is to merge the toolwindows visually, and if it's possible, then I could activate the splitters programmatically later on, whenever there is a need for further resizing.

Thank you!

Simeon
