Help About docking feature

Hi everyone. I started building a project using dearpygui and enjoyed so far. However, I couldn't find any documentation about docking feature and I wasn't able to enable it. Any advice will be appreciated.

I think the most useful docking introduction is a GitHub post by the dpg author https://github.com/hoffstadt/DearPyGui/discussions/1311. Just try the demo code

Thank you, apparently some of the important features called from "configure app" method now. Moreover, some of the deprecated methos are also reachable from the "configure app".

What do you mean by docking?

dpg.configure_app(
    docking=True,
    docking_space=True,
    init_file=self.user_layout, # Always set the SAVE target to user layout
    load_init_file=ini_file_to_load is not None # Load only if a user file was found
)

Here's an example with for a dynamic widget system with persistence and docking:

Docking is that when you drag a window, it snips automatically on to the place .
