With code below the radPane will remain hidden (radPane is floating pane):radPane.IsHidden = true;

radPane.IsHidden = false;

Available in LIB version 2016.2.530, it will be also available in the 2016 R2 SP1.

If the IsHidden property of a Pane placed inside the Document host is bound to a property in the ViewModel with value of True the IsHidden property at start-up is reset to False.

Available in LIB version 2015.2.817, it will be also available in the 2015 Q3 Release.

This leads to loading wrong Template whenever the layout is loaded.

Available in LIB version 2016.2.530, it will be also available in the 2016 R2 SP1.

When a pane is unpinned, mouse over it in order to show. After that when the mouse is removed from the pane it flickers before the animation is started.

Currently, the RadPaneGroup has one Grid layout with Margin="5" present in its control template, which causes the Content of each child pane to be indented according to the Margin property's value.

To work this around, extract the control template, with x:Key="RadPaneGroupDocumentHostControlTemplate", and modify the Grid layout, which has its Margin property set to 5. After that, create a new style with TargetType="RadPaneGroup" and set its DocumentHostTemplate property, to the modified one.

When several unpinned panes are saved, each one of them is duplicated inside the generated XML. 

Available in LIB version 2017.3.1225, it will be also available in the R1 2018 Release.

A possible workaround has been demonstrated in the attached project.

The compass is misplaced on the second monitor when launching *.exe on monitors with higher DPI. The tool window also is not positioned correctly. 

  <application xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
    <windowsSettings>
      <dpiAwareness xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SMI/2016/WindowsSettings">PerMonitor</dpiAwareness>
      <dpiAware xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SMI/2005/WindowsSettings">true</dpiAware>
    </windowsSettings>
  </application>

 

It would be great to be able to use other Resources other that the App.xaml for the Styles applied to the ToolWindow instances.

As they are automatically created and as expected are in a different visual tree accessing for example the Resources of the MainWindow is not possible.

Available in the 2016 Q1 SP1 Release.

Description:

When using a display with scaling setting to more than 100%, floating pane docking does not work as intended. When dragging a pane out of a PaneGroup, and without releasing it, you drop it on top of another tab (so it is inserted into that position in the PaneGroup), nothing happens (window stays floating in that position). If you drag the already floating window on top of the same tab, then the default behavior happens and the pane is docked into the group. This behavior is reproducible on the Telerik UI for WPF Demo app.

See attached video for reproduction case in Demo app.

 

Technical Details:

For the failing scenario DragDelta on the ToolWindow is being triggered with wrongly scaled mouse position. On second drag drop operation, DragDelta receives properly scaled mouse position.

Failure case mouse positions:

DRAG START {864,128.8}
DRAG DELTA {871.2,142.4}
...
DRAG DELTA {864.8,114.4}
DRAG END {1081,143}

Second case mouse positions:

DRAG START {862.4,116}
DRAG DELTA {873.6,160.8}
...
DRAG DELTA {860.8,112}
DRAG END {860.8,112}

Open a Window from a button placed inside the unpinned pane. The pane does not hide and the window is shown below it.

The close button in the document host is not higlighted (hovered-button-state-doc-host.png) as opposed to panes outside the DocumentHost area (hovered-button-state.png).

The workaround is to update the MouseOver visual state of the RadButtonDocumentCloseControlTemplate:

             <ControlTemplate x:Key="RadButtonDocumentCloseControlTemplate" TargetType="telerik:RadButton">
                <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="Transparent" Width="18" Height="18">

The fix for this issue will be available in the next LIB version (2018.3.1022) expected on Monday, October 22.

It happens when the Pane is dragged and dropped not on the Compass several times, quickly.

Loading a layout containing a single empty RadPaneGroup inside the DocumentHost causes the IsInDocumentHost property of the group to return false.

Available in LIB version 2016.3.1017, it will be also available in the 2016 R3 SP1 release. 

 With code below the radPane will remain hidden (radPane is floating pane):radPane.IsHidden = true; radPane.IsHidden = false;

Available in LIB version 2016.2.530, it will be also available in the 2016 R2 SP1.
