Remarks

Tip

This class is outdated. Use the ThemedWindow class to display a window that supports DevExpress themes.

The FloatingContainer is intended to overcome the constraints of the XBAP mode in WPF applications. In most scenarios, you do not need to use this class directly in your WPF applications.

To know whether a FloatingContainer object is visible, handle the FloatingContainer.Hidden event. To close the current session, use the FloatingContainer.Close method.
