FloatingLocation Property

Returns or sets the location of the DockAreaPane when it is floating.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property FloatingLocation As Point
public Point FloatingLocation {get; set;}
Remarks

This property specifies a System.Drawing.Point that serves as the upper-left corner of the floating window. (This corresponds to the System.Windows.Forms.Control.Location property of the standard .NET Windows form.)

Example
The following example demonstates how to use the Reposition method of a DockablePaneBase to reposition multiple panes that may already be positioned in other groups.

Imports Infragistics.Win.UltraWinDock

Private Sub btnReposition_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnReposition.Click

    ' The Float, Dock and ToggleState methods are the main
    ' mechanism for repositioning panes. However, the reposition
    ' method may also be used to reposition panes. For example,
    ' to float all panes in a single dock area:

    ' Suspend any sizing changes
    Me.ultraDockManager1.SuspendLayout()

    ' Create a floating dock area
    Dim dockArea As DockAreaPane = Me.ultraDockManager1.DockAreas.Add(DockedLocation.Floating)

    Dim controlPane As DockableControlPane

    ' Iterate all the control panes and reposition them
    ' to the 
    For Each controlPane In Me.ultraDockManager1.ControlPanes
        If Not controlPane.ParentFloating Is Nothing Then
            'this pane had a floating parent at one point
            'but this will now be changed since we are repositioning
            'it to a new floating dock area
            Debug.WriteLine(String.Format("Control Pane '{0}' previously had a floating parent - '{1}'.", _
                controlPane, controlPane.ParentFloating))
        End If

        If Not controlPane.ParentDocked Is Nothing Then
            Debug.WriteLine(String.Format("Control Pane '{0}' has a docked parent ('{1}') that it will be repositioned to if you double click the pane.", _
                controlPane, controlPane.ParentDocked))
        End If

        'reposition it to the new floating dock area
        controlPane.Reposition(dockArea)
    Next

    ' Initialize some properties on the new dock area
    ' in this case, we'll put them into a sliding group
    'where the sliding buttons are vertically positioned
    dockArea.ChildPaneStyle = ChildPaneStyle.SlidingGroup
    dockArea.GroupSettings.SlidingGroupOrientation = DefaultableOrientation.Vertical

    ' Initialize the size and caption for the dock area
    dockArea.Size = New Size(300, 150)
    dockArea.Text = "Floating Controls"

    dockArea.FloatingLocation = New Point(150, 50)
