RE: windows within windows

[Schwartz, Cynthia L]

But dockingWindow.bxml is based on a Window not a TablePane.  There is a 
DockingWindow class which extends Window.

?

Ah, then you can take out the Window and "content" elements of your 
dockableWindow.bxml and just leave the TablePane in there.

Okay, I see.  So, what you need to do is have an outer piece that wraps both 
your menu and your dockable window within itself, and make that the only window 
inside your display.  Something like this:
window.bxml:
<Window xmlns:bxml=...
                <TablePane styles=...>
                               <columns>
                                                <TablePane.Column width="1*"/>
                                </columns>
                                <rows>
                                                <TablePane.Row height="-1">
                                                                <bxml:include 
src="menu_bar.bxml" inline="true"/>
                                                </TablePane.Row>
                                                <TablePane.Row height="1*">
                                                                <bxml:include 
src="dockable/dockingWindow.bxml" inline="true"/>
                                                </TablePane.Row>
                                </rows>
                </TablePane>
</Window>

Then in your startup method, just load this "window.bxml" as the only one and 
open it.
