SandDock is a window layout engine that adds advanced dockable/collapsible window and document paging functionality to your applications. Featuring comprehensive designer integration, it supports the rich windowing functionality of the Microsoft Visual Studio IDE. Three bundled renderers allow your application to mimic Office 2003 and Visual Studio 2003 and 2005 look and feel and docking.

Updates in V3.0.5

  • Tab images larger than 16x16 are supported in the Whidbey and Office 2007 renderers.
  • DocumentOpenPosition added to SandDockManager, to govern whether new documents are opened at the beginning or at the end of the strip.
  • Trying to resize two split layouts that were already below minimum size could result in an exception.
  • An exception could occur shortly after deserializing layout, after serializing a specific set of windows.
  • The font used to draw both the titlebar and tab for a window is now the window's font.
  • It was possible to drag a floating window such that its resulting titlebar was inaccessible.
  • An ellipsis would be shown on a document tab when integral close was enabled but the document was not closable, and the document had the focus.
  • Maximums are now enforced when dragging a large docked window around in a narrow container so that windows do not become inaccessible.
