Explain how CHGroupPanel works #1

Closed mika76 closed 7 years ago

mika76 commented 7 years ago

I'm loving this addin but I see there is a plugin for a CHGroupPanel which tabs the tool windows. I cannot seem to make it work though. How do you put them in tabs?

mika76 commented 7 years ago

Ah, I see from the code it's only the debug panes really:

Private Const VBA_WIN As String = "VbaWindow"
Private Const IMMED As String = "Immediate"
Private Const WATCH As String = "Watches"
Private Const LOCALS As String = "Locals"
Private Const TASK_LIST As String = "Task List"
Private Const VBPALETTE As String = "VBFloatingPalette"

Any way to add the Project Explorer and Properties panes as well? Maybe even the toolbox pane?

There might be, I'm not the original author of this plugin so I'm not too familiar with the code your referring to. Unfortunately, I no longer have access to VB6 or to a Windows box at all. If you figure it out feel free to submit a PR!

Yeah it works only on those windows - basically the panel that would show at the bottom of the VB6 IDE. I don't have time now to delve into this. Maybe in the future. I'll reopen the issue in that case...
