I was just reading through the comments 
and by the looks of it, some people are 
voting based on the whole project 
rather the changes this author made. 
Which gives me an idea to resubmit this 
with more docking enhancements O_O. 
Oh I voted on ackbars because his 
changes to the original code were 
significant, these are not. I can tell 
AckBar is a little envious, but I can't 
blame him.  

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

I was being sarcastic in the above post 
about resubmitting this project just so 
the flamers don't jump to conclusions. 
I'd rather upload it to Ackbar 
privately and have a credit somewhere 
to me, that's not too much to ask for. 
I wouldn't go the whole 9 yards and 
resubmit it because then we'd all have  
10 TabDocks with different versions by 
different authors. Psc is messy enough.

this control.
I give it a super star 
5.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:

But it displays an utter lack of credit 
in the description and that is wrong. 
People who helped with it deserve the 
credit. Not to mention 2 tabdocks in 
the same month is just plain dumb.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

Also you got a serious bug. If there's 
an app in front of the app with tabdock 
the app with tabdock will periodicly 
flip itself in front. This one has to 
be revised before it can be even useful.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

excelent, work. I think that this dock 
also can be used to save some code 
rewriting creating forms that do not 
need to be a control and load this same 
form in diferent views in your program. 
But to do that It'll be good to have 
one form that the alignment, the dock, 
can be like a mdi child but in a mdi 
child already like but a instance of 
your control in a mdi child and from 
that you start loading the docks at 
left, at the top (also why not have 2 
docks on top but one below the other 
not at any side? - this also it'll be 
good) and finally one dock it'll be in 
the center screen getting all the rest 
of the available space like the mdi 
main view can do it with the childs... 
but it'll be in the child already. This 
can be very usefully and it'll be 
better because you don't need to put 
all the code in the mainform.

Hey chateau d''if, this control was

Hey Michael Canejo.
Yes you are 
correct.
It was not created by this 
author.
But if you look at Ackbars 
COMMENTS 
he says:
'You may modify 
and repost this code.'
I Looks like 
he shot himself in the foot.
And if 
you look at the revisions file it gives 
the history there.
This author has 
not changed any of the help about 
credits. 
I've been following 
Tabdock for a while now and to be 
honest Ackbar hasn't made that much of 
a change anyway.
Simplistic 
subclassing And thats about it!
At 
least this version has a bit more style 
and thought put into it.
So before 
you start shouting off, And calling 
everyone that's voted on this a fool. 
You should sit back for 5 mins and read 
descriptions correctly.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:

Actually I made a lot more changes than 
this guy, and neal made a lot more. But 
I also said distribute it but leave 
appropriate credit which is lacking 
except a file which few read. Neal is 
the one who deserves the most credit in 
reality next to the original author. 
And though I gave permission to 
redistribute you still have to give 
credit to marcile which he totaly and 
utterly lacks. You are all fools and 
you are as well.

I didn't see you giving any 
credit to the other authors in the 
code!
You may have given credit in 
your submission description but that's 
about it!
It seems to me that you 
just simply jealous.

This discussion is getting far too 
heated. I have made a few changes to 
this control as anyone who has read the 
revisions.rtf will know. Gary made some 
changes, which I think have helped make 
this control slicker than it was 
before.
Just be grateful that people 
are amending the code, and still 
distributing it for free.

The problem is I uploaded first and was 
actually looking for a chance to 
possibly win an award. You destroyed my 
chance by resubmitting what I already 
submitted. You left me no real credit, 
even went as far as to make it sound 
like I wasn't involved with your 
description, and I don't appreciate it.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:

Further more I gave appropriate credit 
to everyone in everything. My name 
wasn't even in the about box but 
instead marcile. I took credit for what 
I modified and that was it.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:

Ackbar,
You said you were actually 
looking forward to winning an award, 
when you previously stated that a lot 
of the credit after Marclei, should go 
to myself. Therefore if anyone should 
win the award it should be me.
Lets 
leave it at that shall we and 
concentrate on improving the control.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

it was posted first by ackbar. the 
other two guys just reposted with 
changes. any1 could steal a good 
project that has potential to witn and 
do the same. the voters don't know any 
better. the original author should win 
the reward. the resubmitted entry MUST 
get deleted by the moderators. 

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:

I dont deny you deserve a lot of credit 
neal but so do I. If it wasn't for me 
the control would of never even been 
resorected, and it would still have 
that bug in it which made it pretty 
much useless. You've done a lot but so 
have I. This new guy's done pretty much 
nothing, yet he's taking all the real 
credit.  Further more this version is 
soo suverely bugged it's not even 
funny. Now the great thing is I've 
fixed the one most important bug but 
you don't see me releasing it. Don't 
count on getting it either. Cause you 
are obviously not the friend I thought 
you were.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

Ackbar:
I think Gary's done more 
than you think.
You added some 
subclassing (????).
Gary made the 
control much more easier on the eye, 
implemented some excellent features and 
got rid of some of your bugs!
So as 
to say this guy has done 'Pretty Much 
Nothing' is such a 
lie.
Congratulations to Neal and 
Gary for an excellent control.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

Ackbar,
I have been developing this 
control on and off for the past 
year.
How do you think it got the 
following;
Customisable 
Captions
Side 
Captions
Collapsing/Expanding Panels 
(some credit for this goes to Marclei, 
who sent me a WIP of his Tabdock 1.7 
before he went AWOL)
Maximised Docked 
windows
Gary has added the following 
to the project
fixed some of the 
bugs
improved the splitter
added the 
collapsed Panel captions
improved the 
docked forms maximised and close 
buttons
The bug you identified has 
been fixed by myself and Gary and we 
will be uploading this in the next day 
or so.
If you don't want to share 
thats your choice, but surely the point 
of this code is that it is free and we 
all want to share in its development.

Neal,
I'd give you alot more credit 
if your re-entry of this tabdock was 
based on an original version by the 
original author and not a update on 
AckBars submission. I hope both 
submissions get accepted as code of 
month, and if they do it's going to be 
quite silly that two are based on the 
same submission, Couldn't you have 
waited till next month.. i mean really, 
it seems almost rude to have done this 
while AckBar was at the top. Just my 
opinion anyway.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:

But in uploading this as michal said 
you were just plane rude. You coulda 
waited a month and had your chance but 
now you ruined my chance and that was 
not kind.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:

I agree with the above two, but great 
code. I've been looking for this for a 
long time.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

Michael,
Let me get something 
straight. The version posted by Ackbar 
was the version I had given to him with 
my changes to his last submission on 
Planet Source code over a year ago. 
Therefore he was actually submitting 
his old entry with changes of mine. 
Secondly the 2.4 version he also has 
there at the moment is further changes 
made by myself, not Ackbar.
If you 
care to read the revisions.rtf you will 
see how many of the changes are mine. 
(quite significant ones).
Myself and 
Gary re-submitted the project because 
the last version of Tabdock (2.5) never 
got posted by Ackbar and we felt we 
should share this rather than keep it 
to ourselves. 

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

One more thing. We didn't enter this to 
win any coding contest. Submitting code 
onto Planet Source Code to only win 
awards defeats the whole point of the 
site. It is for people to share code 
however small or large, not because 
they are only interested in winning an 
award.
Lets here some positive 
things about the control and ideas on 
how we can improve it/bugs that need 
fixing (hope theres not too many of 
those)

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

Neal the submission I made of 2.4 was 
not just changes by you. I fixed the 
bug which made it so the undocked 
windows could be resized again, and I 
added the feature so the windows could 
be resized properly. So don't give me 
that you did it all. I thought you were 
a friend, apparently I was totaly and 
utterly wrong.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:

Master!
In the comments I read that 
I'm not the only one who has been 
looking for
the TabDock functionality 
in VB. Before I used the coolbar 
control to make
dockable windows but 
the effect is not as sleak as the 
TabDock control. My
sincerest 
compliments for the code. It 's 
great.
However I have some questions 
and I hope that you can help me.
1) 
I want to change the position (left, 
right etc.) in the source code 
after
the add command. A logic syntax 
would 
be
TabDock2.DockedForms("Form1").align=
tdAlignTop). But I did not find such 
a
functionality.
2) Sometimes VB 
crashes on the control. First a error 
message "Run time
error 0" is 
displayed followed by a fatal error of 
VB. Should I buy a new
computer or is 
this a known problem?
Happy 
coding,
Terence Vehmeyer

Ackbar,
You did indeed pass me a fix

code!!

I can honestly say that the 
people who are voting for this code are 
not known to me at all, and I'm sure 
they can say the same.
If you prefer 
the original entry that's fine (as 2.4 
is mostly changes by me, therefore I 
cannot steal my own code).

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:

Neal, You can justify ur post however 
you want but you know that what you did 
isn't right. Everything is free on PSC 
but grabbing a monhtly winning entry, 
making some flashy changes to it and 
then resubmitting it in the same month 
is just totally WRONG. 
He updated 
the original post with your recommended 
changes. This should be appreciated. 
You previosuly justifed your posted 
entry by saying that he wasn't taking 
ur recommended changes so u had to post 
it yourself. Now you are saying that 
the 2.4 version has your coding changes 
anyway. Good player you are... You 
might win this but you are not a 
winner. You are still just the 
opposite. 

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

PROBRO,
Firstly read the 
revisions.rtf of Tabdock 2.4.
Ackbar 
hasn't made any changes to this control 
since 2.1/2.2. The version he posted 
was 2.3 and 2.4. Both of which were 
changes made by me. (quite significant 
ones).
Therefore his winning monthly 
entry, as you put it, is really mine.. 

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

I have made changes since then I just 
don't always include them in the 
changes.rtf neal so just go to hll. You 
are obviously not as cool as I thought.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

Oh and more over you are pretty much 
denying credit completly to the one guy 
who absolutly deserves the most. I've 
made changes yes, you've made changes 
absolutly, but he made the control. 
Marcile deserves the real credit and 
his name appears in my description as 
it should but here his name is not 
showing up at all. You claim oh it's in 
the changes.rtf, thats wonderful, half 
the people here will never read it. 
Make the guy who deserves all the props 
known and stop taking all the d@mn 
credit!

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

Ackbar,
I am not taking credit for 
the project, merely the changes I have 
made, and likewise Gary.
Marclei 
does indeed deserve the real credit, I 
agree. This has never been removed from 
any of the code. Without his 
contribution none of this would have 
been possible.
The latest version we 
have reworked the example, but Marclei 
is still credited in all code and the 
About dialogue.
You claim to have 
made changes, but the version you have 
on your entry is a straght copy of the 
2.4 version I sent you, which has been 
on my machine for a good number of 
months, therefore any changes you may 
have made are not present in the 
release you are offering.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

Perhaps so but I still did some 
changes. So I do deserve more credit 
than you are giving me. As far as I'm 
concerned that makes you a thief. I 
quite prominently display your name in 
the version I uploaded and feel you 
deserve credit and do give it to you. 
You on the other hand are not doing the 
same.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:
Reason:
 

These comments are getting very 
boring.
Ackbar:
Yes you do deserve 
a lot of credit.
And I hold my hand up 
and say sorry for not giving it.
I 
Will also hold my hand up and say sorry 
to Marclei for not mentioning his name 
either.
If it wasn't for him this 
control would be non existant.
Now 
can we all put this behind us and get 
on with making the control better.

Keep the Planet clean! If this comment was disrespectful, please report it:

praise, send the compiled control to

Ackbar, maybe 
your right. But the people who care

notice who did what. Those who don't 
wouldn't have bothered to find out 
anyway.
