Remarks

Toolbars are docked along the borders of the main window. When a toolbar is docked, its title bar is hidden and its border is changed to a single line. The toolbar is also resized to a single row of buttons. The window is resized so that the toolbar does not obscure any information on the screen. For example, if the toolbar is docked at the top, the screen is moved down by the height of the toolbar.

Use the Move method to undock a toolbar. When using the Move method, the coordinates specified must be outside the dock area.
