System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

The Syncfusion WPF Docking skill enables developers to implement IDE-like window layouts in WPF applications by coordinating DockingManager with tool windows and central documents. It standardizes docking, floating, auto-hidden, and document modes, plus theming and layout persistence, reducing manual wiring and inconsistencies.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • IDE-style interfaces with tool windows docked, auto-hidden, or floating
  • Central document areas managed by UseDocumentContainer (MDI/TDI)
  • State persistence, theming, and keyboard navigation for production-grade apps
  • Real-world use: create a Visual Studio-like editor or data-analysis dashboard with multi-panel layouts

Quick Start

Install and configure a DockingManager in your WPF app and define your initial windows (SolutionExplorer, Toolbox, Properties, Output, and a StartPage) with relevant states, sides, and headers.
