Parameters

Name	Type	Description
item	BaseLayoutItem	The only BaseLayoutItem element to remain opened within its parent container.

Remarks

The CloseAllButThis or Close methods close the items whose BaseLayoutItem.AllowClose property is set to true.

The method closes all child items within the item’s container except the specified item object.

You can set a closed item’s BaseLayoutItem.ClosingBehavior or a parent dock layout manager’s DockLayoutManager.ClosingBehavior properties to specify whether items should be removed, or moved to the closed panel collection.

Tip

Use the DockControllerBase.Close method to close a specific item.
