[Enhancement] Dockable windows #587

Open Niamek opened 8 years ago

Niamek commented 8 years ago

I would like to make some windows to be docked to the "main window" (that is the game).

I noticed that if floating window is not checked, both bizhawk and the tool window opens up. It a great feature, but I think docking windows would be an another great feature to add.

For example, I'd prefer the RAM search window to be the same window that the game, or at least(probably better that way) when I move one of them, the other moves with it. Could be the same thing with RAM watches, cheats, TASinput (all the tools).

Something like(of course with better words probably) : In the window of the tool(example: RAM search):

->Option -->Dock windows with main windows

(Just on top or under the feature floating window?)

Something like that. But could be different?

In other (better?) words, fusing two windows together, or better: sticking(glue? Not sure if it's the right word to use there) them together.

Jokes aside, here are my notes on this feature (I'd forgotten it was in the issue tracker already). It's probably doable with WinForms, but I think it's best to wait for the UI rewrite we're due any year now.
