Version 4.0 - Back to the Roots

Breaking Change

The release of AvalonDock Version 4.0 introduces a small breaking change. The change is that we are going back to using the namespace names and library names as they were used in AvalonDock Version 2.0 and earlier releases. Please follow this guide to understand the adjustments necessary to continue using this library.

New Features and Fixes

This release adds 6 fixes and 2 new features:

1. Docking multiple Documents and LayoutAnchorables (tool windows) in a floating document window (much like in Visual Studio) is now possible.

2. AutoHideDelay property to control the time until an AutoHide window is reduced back to its anchored representation
