How to Change Docking window into MDI Child window?

The SetAsMDIChild method of Docking Manager is used to set the docking window to the MDIChild window.

Please refer the below code snippet which illustrates this:

//Initialize the TabbedMDI Manager
TabbedMDIManager tabbedMDI = new TabbedMDIManager();
this.IsMdiContainer = true;
//Attach the Form to TabbedMDI Manager.
tabbedMDI.AttachToMdiContainer(this);
 
//To set as MDI Child window
this.dockingManager1.SetAsMDIChild(panel, true);
 
//To get back to Docking window from MDI Child window
this.dockingManager1.SetAsMDIChild(this.panel1, false);

'Initialize the TabbedMDI Manager
Dim tabbedMDI As New TabbedMDIManager()
Me.IsMdiContainer = True
'Attach the Form to TabbedMDI Manager.
tabbedMDI.AttachToMdiContainer(Me)
 
'To set as MDI Child window
Me.dockingManager1.SetAsMDIChild(panel, True)
 
'To get back to Docking window from MDI Child window
Me.dockingManager1.SetAsMDIChild(panel, False)

Note:

The property named “IsMdiContainer” needs to enable in order to use the “SetAsMDIChild” function in DockingManager.
