Examples

This example creates a linked window frame, adds the Output Window and Solution Explorer to the linked frame as vertical windows, activates the linked window frame, and then undocks the windows from the frame.

Imports EnvDTE  
Imports EnvDTE80  
Sub LinkedWindowFrameExample(ByVal dte As DTE2)  
    Dim Frame As Window2  
    Dim w1 As Window2 = _  
    CType(dte.Windows.Item _  
(Constants.vsWindowKindSolutionExplorer),Window2)  
     Dim w2 As Window2 = CType(dte.Windows.Item _  
(Constants.vsWindowKindOutput), Window2)  
    ' Create a linked window frame and dock Solution Explorer   
    ' and the Ouput window together inside it.  
    Frame = Ctype(dte.Windows.CreateLinkedWindowFrame(w1, w2, _  
    vsLinkedWindowType.vsLinkedWindowTypeVertical), Window2)  
    MsgBox("Activating the linked window frame...")  
    Frame.LinkedWindows.Item(1).LinkedWindowFrame.Activate()  
    MsgBox("Removing Solution Explorer from the linked frame...")  
    Frame.LinkedWindows.Remove(w1)  
    MsgBox("Removing the Output window from the linked frame...")  
    Frame.LinkedWindows.Remove(w2)  
End Sub

using EnvDTE;  
using EnvDTE80;  
using System.Windows.Forms;  
public void LinkedWindowFrameExample(DTE2 dte)  
{  
    Window2 w1 = (Window2)_applicationObject.Windows.Item  
(Constants.vsWindowKindSolutionExplorer);  
    Window2 w2 = (Window2)_applicationObject.Windows.Item  
(Constants.vsWindowKindOutput);  
    Window2 Frame =   
(Window2)_applicationObject.Windows.CreateLinkedWindowFrame  
(w1, w2, vsLinkedWindowType.vsLinkedWindowTypeVertical);  
    MessageBox.Show("Activating the linked window frame...");  
    Frame.LinkedWindows.Item(1).LinkedWindowFrame.Activate();  
    MessageBox.Show("Removing Solution Explorer   
from the linked frame...");  
    Frame.LinkedWindows.Remove(w1);  
    MessageBox.Show("Removing the Output window from the   
linked frame...");  
    Frame.LinkedWindows.Remove(w2);  
}

Remarks

Note that if the window is docked to the side of the main window, then the LinkedWindowFrame is the same object as the main environment window.

If the window is not linked, is of type LinkedWindowFrame, is hidden, or is a document, then LinkedWindowFrame returns Nothing. Hidden windows are not considered linked because they are not in a window frame.
