Prevent some Toolstrips from dropping on some ToolStripContainer

[Joe]

I have a few ToolStripContains and ToolStrips in my app and only want
certain ToolStrips to be able to be dropped on certain ToolStripContainers.
Is there anyway to do this? I tried the DragEnter event of the
ToolStripContainer but it didn't help.

Thanks,
Joe

Hello Joe,

In VS.NET 2005, ToolStrips can be draged btween ToolStripContainers by
default. For example, we can put two ToolStripContainers on a form ( We may
change the back color of the Containerpanel so that we can recognize them
from form). Put a ToolStrip on one of ToolStripContainers, dock it on the
top panel. And run the program, you will be able to drag and drop the
ToolStrip.

If you want a ToolStripContainer to reject a certain ToolStrip, you may add
some code in:

ToolStripContainer_TopToolStripPanel_ControlAdded()

remove the last added control and and its back to original
ToolStripContainer.

Hope this help,

Luke
