At the moment the only choice I know of is to use fixed layout because docking doesn't exist in the IDE yet. One window with various TFrames embedded in a PageControl. So I guess then the idea is bad for you and a patch will not be accepted? What is the progress on docking support inside the IDE? Sorry, I haven't followed all message threads in the mailing list. If docking support is not even near completion, I would still suggest the tabbed window idea, until such time when the IDE has docking support. Then we can simply move each TFrame back onto a separate dockable window. BTW: Will the IDE support docking in the centre of another window, creating Tabs at runtime? Delphi 7 used to have that. You can doc certain windows on each of the four sides, or in the centre. The latter created tabs at runtime.
