Pallet Closed Event

[foruma000256]

Am I missing something or is there not a PaletteClosed event? Is there any other method I can use to detect the moment in time the user hits the close button on a Palette?

Any advice/help/comments are will be appreciated.

Thanks,

About that:

State Changed fires off anytime you dock or undock, as well as when you close the palette. Like so...
Dock (state hide, state unhide) fires 2 times
Undock (state hide, state unhide) fires 2 times
close (state hide) fires once

Other than those states (e, event args variable) there is no difference between the event arguments (sender or event args) that tell me it has been closed for good.

Why do I care you ask? Because when the user closes the form, I want to unload the entire program (remove all the event handlers for good, remove the data from memory etc.) If the user docs and undocs, I don't want to be removing all that stuff, because it takes some time to reload it (especially with large projects full of data).

So anywhere else I can look?

Sorry, I don't follow you.

If you get the StateChanged event when the user closes the paletteset, then that's telling you it was closed.

You have to look at the event arguments to tell what state changed.

I am only seeing properties in these events that tell me hide or unhide, nothing that indicates it was 'closed'. What do you see that tells you it was closed.

I get the StateChanged event many times as stated above. When it is docked, undocked, opened and closed, but nothing I can see tells me its off for good (Closed).

There is no such thing as "closed".

When the user clicks the X button on the PaletteSet, it is only hidden.

I guess that means I need to create my own 'close' button then...
