Available values:

Name	Description
True	true. DefaultBoolean.True has a constant value of 0, while the standard true value corresponds to a value of 1. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
False	false. DefaultBoolean.False has a constant value of 1, while the standard false value corresponds to a value of 0. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
Default	The default behavior determined by the control’s logic.

Remarks

You can use a View’s IBaseDocumentProperties.AllowFloat property to specify whether all documents within a View can be floating. A document’s AllowFloat property allows you to override this setting for individual documents.

If the AllowFloat setting is set to DefaultBoolean.Default, the actual setting is specified by the View’s IBaseDocumentProperties.AllowFloat property. Otherwise, the actual setting is specified by the AllowFloat property.

A View’s IBaseDocumentProperties.AllowFloat property is accessible via the BaseView.DocumentProperties object. A document’s AllowFloat property is accessible via the BaseDocument.Properties object.
