Declaration

C#

public void DockTo(
    DockPanel panel,
    DockingStyle dock,
    int index
)

    panel As DockPanel,
    dock As DockingStyle,

)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
panel	DockPanel	A DockPanel object that is the target dock panel.
dock	DockingStyle	A DockingStyle enumerator value specifying how the current panel is docked to the target panel.
index	Int32	A zero-based integer specifying the position at which to dock the current panel.

Remarks

If the current panel is docked to a split container or tab container, it’s added as a new child to this container.

If the target panel does not contain children, a split container will be created in place of the target panel and this will contain the target and current panels.

The index parameter allows you to specify exactly how the panel is docked - to the target panel’s left or right, or bottom etc.

The index parameter specifies the position in which the current panel is docked. Set the index parameter to 0 to add the panel as the first one amongst the target container’s children. Set index to 1 to add the panel as the second one, etc. Setting the index parameter to -1appends the panel to the container. To get the position of a panel amongst its sibling panels, use the DockPanel.Index property.
