Example

This sample demonstrates how to create dockable floating and floating only panes and initialize their default size and location.

Visual Basic

Imports Infragistics.Windows.DockManager

Private Sub InitializeDockManager(ByVal dockManager As XamDockManager)
    Dim splitFloatDock As New SplitPane()
    XamDockManager.SetInitialLocation(splitFloatDock, InitialPaneLocation.DockableFloating)

    ' the FloatingSize and FloatingLocation attached properties can be used 
    ' to get/set the position of a floating split pane - whether it is dockable 
    ' or not. 
    ' 
    XamDockManager.SetFloatingLocation(splitFloatDock, New Point(100, 100))
    XamDockManager.SetFloatingSize(splitFloatDock, New Size(350, 200))
    Dim cpInFloatDock As New ContentPane()
    cpInFloatDock.Header = "Floating Dockable"
    cpInFloatDock.Content = New RichTextBox()
    splitFloatDock.Panes.Add(cpInFloatDock)

    Dim splitFloatOnly As New SplitPane()
    XamDockManager.SetInitialLocation(splitFloatOnly, InitialPaneLocation.FloatingOnly)
    XamDockManager.SetFloatingLocation(splitFloatOnly, New Point(500, 400))
    XamDockManager.SetFloatingSize(splitFloatOnly, New Size(350, 200))
    Dim cpInFloatOnly As New ContentPane()
    cpInFloatOnly.Header = "Floating Only"
    cpInFloatOnly.Content = New RichTextBox()
    splitFloatOnly.Panes.Add(cpInFloatOnly)

    dockManager.Panes.Add(splitFloatDock)
    dockManager.Panes.Add(splitFloatOnly)
End Sub

C#

using Infragistics.Windows.DockManager;

private void InitializeDockManager(XamDockManager dockManager)
{
	SplitPane splitFloatDock = new SplitPane();
	XamDockManager.SetInitialLocation(splitFloatDock, InitialPaneLocation.DockableFloating);

	// to get/set the position of a floating split pane - whether it is dockable
	// or not.
	// 
	XamDockManager.SetFloatingLocation(splitFloatDock, new Point(100, 100));
	XamDockManager.SetFloatingSize(splitFloatDock, new Size(350, 200));
	ContentPane cpInFloatDock = new ContentPane();
	cpInFloatDock.Header = "Floating Dockable";
	cpInFloatDock.Content = new RichTextBox();
	splitFloatDock.Panes.Add(cpInFloatDock);

	SplitPane splitFloatOnly = new SplitPane();
	XamDockManager.SetInitialLocation(splitFloatOnly, InitialPaneLocation.FloatingOnly);
	XamDockManager.SetFloatingLocation(splitFloatOnly, new Point(500, 400));
	XamDockManager.SetFloatingSize(splitFloatOnly, new Size(350, 200));
	ContentPane cpInFloatOnly = new ContentPane();
	cpInFloatOnly.Header = "Floating Only";
	cpInFloatOnly.Content = new RichTextBox();
	splitFloatOnly.Panes.Add(cpInFloatOnly);

	dockManager.Panes.Add(splitFloatDock);
	dockManager.Panes.Add(splitFloatOnly);
}
