As I can see it, it does work under win32, the only problem is the
focus/access problem with the mouse. It seams the mouse events are not
passed to the parent properly. (?)

>From the message of Mattias, should I understand that if I crate my
form with a parent, it will be dockable, and if with a (nil) parent,
it will not be dockable?

For my personal use, I do not want full form docking. I want only the
client area of the form to dock, and act like a panel. It allows
amazing user interface code reuse and design simplification and later
code maintenance.

Best regards.
