how to copy properties of one DocktableFrame to another one

[sainideepak]

Hi,

I am creating one DockableFrame based on the settings defined in the layout file. Now, I am generating few other DockableFrame's on the fly. I want to set the properties of these on-the-fly generated frames similar to the one created based on the layout file.

I can set these properties by reading and setting each property at a time, but is there an easier way. something like..

frame2.setProperties(frame1.getProperties())......

I'm afraid not. However, we can now support XML layout format for DefaultDockingManager. You could invoke DefaultDockingManager#setXmlFormat(true) to let the layout file be in XML format and try to add your new frames into it.

Thanks,
