Hello,
I’m implementing DockingFrames in my application. However, I don’t use it directly with a JFrame, but on a JPanel. It works perfectly, except for the resize cursor change on the edges of the docking frames.
Am I missing something?
Thanks in advance for your answer,
Hans Oesterholt.
Would you mind narrowing down the problem to a small, compilable, executable program source code? Could you please post this source code?
Best, Ebenius
I’ll make a small spike
I found the problem. Added comments where it occurs

}```I think you should make an implementation choice here.
E.g. document the behaviour
Yes, the framework does not support the disabled-enabled state in any way. I don’t have the spare time to implement this. You could however call “SplitDockStation.setResizingEnabled( false );” to stop the resizing.
If I may ask: do you need disabled stations and panels? And why do you need then?
I’ve pre created some panels that cannot be used unless other panels have been initialized, using menus (there are other possibilities to get the same functional result).
