Hi, I have a C# Windows application (app1) with buttons on a panel for a menu bar. I have done this because the application can also be launched from another application (menu1), that will dock app1 inside a tab control. (A normal toolbar or menu bar becomes non-responsive when the application is docked. (documented bug)). One of the menu buttons in app1 launches a context menu with a list of reports. By running App1 on its own, I can launch any of the reports, which will show in the default browser. However, after menu1 has docked app1 and I launch a report, nothing happens, till I close app1, after which the report will show and dock in the tab control of menu1.
I was wondering if anybody knows of this "serial" behaviour and if there is anything that can be done about it? Is there a way to "break" the link between the app1 process and the report process? Can the parent process be changed on a running process? I will appreciate any ideas from the very clever people out there.
PS: Latest VS, OS = Windows 10, Using .NET Framework 4.
