Remarks

By default, dragging a Document within a TabbedView at runtime displays Dock Guides (see the image below), which remain visible until the Document is docked or released. If the ShowDockGuidesOnPressingShift property equals true, these hints will not be shown unless an end-user presses the keyboard Shift key.

DocumentManager DockGuides

The ShowDockGuidesOnPressingShift property affects united DocumentManager and DockManager docking hints as well, if both of these components are used within an application. See the Interaction with Dock Panels topic to learn more.
