BarToolbarsListItem.ShowDockPanels Property

Gets or sets whether a list of the existing dock panels should be displayed.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraBars

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraBars.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Navigation

#Declaration

[DefaultValue(false)]
public virtual bool ShowDockPanels { get; set; }

#Property Value

Type Default Description
Boolean false

true to display the list of the existing dock panels; otherwise, false.

#Remarks

Dock panels can be added to the form using the DockManager component. For a BarToolbarsListItem object to display the names of the existing dock panels you need to set the ShowDockPanels property to true and ensure that the BarManager.DockManager property is set to the DockManager component (the owner of the dock panels). If you create a BarManager or DockManager component in code, you must initialize the BarManager.DockManager property manually. When creating the BarManager and DockManager components at design time, this property is initialized automatically.

Note

Auto-hidden dock panels are not displayed by the BarToolbarsListItem.
