Can I customize AvalonDock context menu?
I am using AvalonDock in a project to take advantage of the tool windows.
I don't have any need for Tabbed Documents and would like to disable the "Dock as Tabbed Document" context menu item when I right click on a tool window title bar. Is this possible?
Thanks
i think this is a simple property setting. i use the latest source from codeplex 76560.
you can change the DockableStyle property to the style that you want:
<ad:SampleDockableContent DockableStyle="DockableToBorders"
x:Name="DockingManagerPropertiesHost"
Title="Only dock to borders">
</ad:SampleDockableContent>
and can override this method to disable the contect menu:
public partial class SampleDockableContent : DockableContent
{
public SampleDockableContent() {
this.InitializeComponent();
this.DataContext = this;
}
protected override bool CanExecuteCommand(ICommand command) {
if (command == DockableContentCommands.ShowAsDocument) {
if (this.DockableStyle == DockableStyle.DockableToBorders) {
return false;
}
if (this.State == DockableContentState.Document) {
return false;
}
}
return base.CanExecuteCommand(command);
}
}
here is the flag enum:
/// <summary>
/// Defines how a dockable content can be dragged over a docking manager
/// </summary>
/// <remarks>This style can be composed with the 'or' operator.</remarks>
public enum DockableStyle : uint
{
/// <summary>
/// Content is not dockable at all
/// </summary>
None = 0x0000,
/// <summary>
/// Dockable as document
/// </summary>
Document = 0x0001,
/// <summary>

/// </summary>
LeftBorder = 0x0002,
/// <summary>
/// Dockable to the right border of <see cref="DockingManager"/>
/// </summary>
RightBorder = 0x0004,
/// <summary>
/// Dockable to the top border of <see cref="DockingManager"/>
/// </summary>
TopBorder = 0x0008,
/// <summary>
/// Dockable to the bottom border of <see cref="DockingManager"/>
/// </summary>
BottomBorder= 0x0010,
/// <summary>
/// A <see cref="DockableContent"/> with this style can be hosted in a <see cref="FloatingWindow"/>
/// </summary>
Floating = 0x0020,
/// <summary>
/// A <see cref="DockableContent"/> with this style can be the only one content in a <see cref="DockablePane"/> pane (NOT YET SUPPORTED)
/// </summary>
/// <remarks>This style is not compatible with <see cref="DockableStyle.Document"/> style</remarks>
Single = 0x0040,
/// <summary>
/// A <see cref="DockableContet"/> with this style can be autohidden.
/// </summary>
AutoHide = 0x0080,
/// <summary>
/// Dockable only to a border of a <see cref="DockingManager"/>
/// </summary>
DockableToBorders = LeftBorder | RightBorder | TopBorder | BottomBorder | AutoHide,
/// <summary>
/// Dockable to a border of a <see cref="DockingManager"/> and into a <see cref="DocumentPane"/>
/// </summary>
Dockable = DockableToBorders | Document | Floating,
/// <summary>
/// Dockable to a border of a <see cref="DockingManager"/> and into a <see cref="DocumentPane"/> but not in autohidden mode (WinForms controls)
/// </summary>
DockableButNotAutoHidden = Dockable & ~AutoHide
