I have somehow manage to dock the property window and form layout window in Project Explorer window.

however, I have not been able to put the Project Explorer window with the Visual basic window.

Can someone tell me how to dock it into the Main VB Window.

Here's a screenshot of the current status

maybe doubleclicking the titlebar will do it.

Oh yes it does ..but it horizontally docks it...
I want it to b vertical

Polyphemus_ · Sep 29th, 2005, 10:25 AM

tried moving it to the vertical side? often, you see the window changing shape and it docks automatically..

java_roshan · Sep 29th, 2005, 11:40 AM

yes...tried this option as well...no results...its not docking vertically...

(I wonder is...it highly sensitive...Do I have to be thin precise?) ...:-?

Holding down ctrl whilst moving will stop it docking, while dragging over another dock's title bar will make it go into tabbed dock mode. Also right clicking on the title bar of a window and toggling dockable lets you set if its a tool window or occupies the MDI area. Hope this helps!
