I'm now working on a new project that will be written
in C#...

I thought new technology -> new design....

...it took a little time to figure out the new handling
in Visual Studio.NET, but it is quite simple.

You can get any control or function you want in the
new design studio from microsoft but I missed
a little thing:

Look at the picture that I attached. There you can see
the solution explorer from Visual Studio.NET.
This window is dockable and resizeable.

I didn't find any form that can do this too.
Does anyone know how to make a window dockable?

Is there an existing control or function in C#?

thx!

my hunch is this is a child MDI form. Also a guess, but I would think that the form like "x" and push pin are just docked to the upper right hand corner of the child form, to give it the appearance of being an independent form.

I figured out there is now MDI used. The used controls such
as "GenericPane" and "VBFloatingPalette".

This are the names of the classes of those controls.
I don't know how the original controls are called.

I also didn't find anything at the MSDN homepage.

Any ideas where to find some informations about that?

thx!
