I have a DockContent with DockState = DockState.DockBottomAutoHide.
How to make this window visible again?

With 'Visible' I mean not to change DockState to DockState.DockBottom but just to pop it up (slide out) - same behavior as when hover the mouse over the auto-hide tab.

I searched around for hours, without success.
Answer that don't work in my context: (1)

  • What version are you using? I would expect the solution discussed in the link you referenced to work (setting the ActiveAutoHideContent). – roken Jul 18 '14 at 15:35
  • It's version 2.5. Set `ActiveAutoHideContent` to what? – joe Jul 18 '14 at 19:24
  • 2.5 is quite out of date. With this version, however, you should be able to call Show() on the DockContent you wish to "slide out." The link you provided explains the bug that broke that functionality in a later version, and provides the alternate method of setting ActiveAutoHideContent to that DockContent you wish to display. – roken Jul 19 '14 at 00:39
  • @roken: Thanks, that worked. Please provide this as answer so I can upvote. – joe Jul 21 '14 at 06:05

2.5 is quite out of date, so I would encourage you to upgrade to a more recent version of the 2.x series if at all possible.

With this version, however, you should be able to call Show() on the DockContent you wish to "slide out."
