#Property Paths

You can access this nested property as listed below:

Object Type Path to AllowDockBottom
DockPanel
.Options .AllowDockBottom

#Remarks

This property cannot be changed if the panel is currently docked to the bottom edge of a form (user control).

Even if the AllowDockBottom property is set to false the panel can still be docked to another panel which is docked to the bottom edge of the form. Handle the DockManager.Docking event to control docking operations on panels.

Use the DockPanel.Dock property to determine which edge of a dock control the current panel is docked to or if the panel is floated.
