Dockk targets won't appear if you hold Ctrl while you drag around a dockable tool window.

BTW: What's the point in not allowing a document window all those states?

This tip seems like a good place to note that you can hold ctrl while dragging to keep a Dockable window from docking - it hides all dock targets (unless that's tomorrow's tip!).

Sara,

it was great having dinner with you last night. I'm sure I'll be talking with you again soon.

Let me check the tip queue. If i don't have a tip for "Ctrl" disables docking, i'll definitely add it! =)

I use Hovering tool windows because of having two monitors. One monitor has Visual Studion maximized in it, but really only the solution explorer window is docked in it. I then have a hovering tool window on the second monitor with most other windows I care about such as Output, Team Explorer, Pending Changes, Find Results, Error List, Task List and Breakpoints.

I use the VS Window Manager power toy to help quickly move my hovering tool windows to hidden or docked state.

Does anyone know if VS 2008 is supported by the VS Window Manager Powertoy?
