Adding forms into a panel

[ernesto bascón pantoja]

Hi everybody:

I am adding several forms into a panel to give MDI appearance to my panel..
Though the forms inside my panel looks fine, I have three problems:

1. The focused form does have the title bar activated (it is gray, like the
inactive forms)
2. The only way to bring to front a form is clicking the title bar (in a MDI
container, the user can click at anyplace in the form and it gets
activated).
3. Cascade, horizontal tile and vertical tile functionality is not provided.

Well, the tile and cascade window organization can be implemented, but I do
not know how to deal with the focus and mouse problem.

Am I doing something wrong? There is another way to implement this
functionality?

Thank you in advance



Ernesto

You'll have to implement your own Cascade/Tile methods though.

I'll try with your code!
