separate floating window, without zooming the entire design view (FIG. 9).

Working With Dockable Windows

All windows in TPDesign4 are fully dockable. Dockable windows can be re-arranged within the
application window.

Moving, Docking and Resizing Dockable Windows

To move the windows, click on the title bar and drag and drop the window into the desired position.
Dockable windows automatically snap into place once they are positioned near an available docking area
(along the edges of the application window, or along the edge of another dockable window.

Toggling the Windows

Each of the windows can be toggled on/off via the options in the View menu or the Workspace context
menu - see page 15). Select or de-select each window to toggle by checking or un-checking the window
listings in this menu (checked = window is on/displayed).

Status Bar

There are two views available for the status bar (located along the bottom edge of the application
window). The default view, and the secondary view which is available via a double-click anywhere on
the status bar.
All position (X-Y) values in TPDesign4 are zero-based (measured in pixels), meaning that the
upper-left corner of each page is represented by the X-Y value of 0, 0.
