Looking for a docking library for a VCL app using Delphi Berlin that supports docking multiple forms. We've been using the JEDI docking components but keep having problems and the lack of documentation is frustrating. I was looking for something like AQTime docking library, but that doesn't seem to be available anymore. Anyone have suggestions?
Have a look at LMD DockingPack

ReplyDeleteAndre Felix Miertschink does it support docking forms? The website mentions docking panels, but we have separate forms which need to be docked to our main form, or floated on their own.
ReplyDeleteSteve Maughan I couldn't find any VCL docking components/library at devexpress.com. (Their controls are REALLY expensive too!).
ReplyDeleteScott Pinkham sorry but I'm not familiar with LMD. I just know their component from past and I heard from many comments that it was supposed to be the best VCL option for Docking. I do have DevExpress and docking info is at: https://www.devexpress.com/Products/VCL/ExBars/DockingLib.xml
ReplyDeleteYou can download DevExpress trial to test. It's expensive, but worth it in case you use multiple of their controls. I agree that just for the use of docking components it would be very expensive
Scott Pinkham it's part of the Navigation Controls package (which is phenomenal). They aren't cheap but IMHO well worth it. https://www.devexpress.com/Products/VCL/ExBars/
ReplyDeleteok thanks, i will check it out. I don't mind paying for sw when it's worth it.
ReplyDeleteI've looked at all docking libraries for vcl over the years, even wrote my own (never finished it) and the LMD one is the best by far. It's what we use in FinalBuilder and it works very well.
