Overridable Public Property UseDocumentSelector As DefaultBoolean

Property value

Forms within the DocumentManager can be presented in either the NativeMdiView or the TabbedView. For both these options, the Document Selector can be used. Invoked via the CTRL+TAB or CTRL+SHIFT+TAB shortcut, it allows you to switch to a specific document or dock panel (much like Microsoft Visual Studio). The following figure illustrates what the Document Selector looks like:

Users can press the TAB and Arrow keys to navigate within the Document Selector. A small preview of the currently focused item is displayed for ease of navigation. When an end-user displays/hides a document selector, the DocumentSelectorShown and DocumentSelectorHidden events are fired. You can also check if a document selector is currently displayed via the IsDocumentSelectorVisible property.

The default UseDocumentSelector value works the same as true, enabling the Document Selector.
