    Two ChlidFrames in one MDI application?Is it a good solution?

    Hi all
    I want to achieve such an efect like - one view which takes all MDI area and some views which arelike non modal dialogs

    How can I do it?
    Two Child frames will be correct? one for "big" view which will be always visible and second for a "smal" views

    maybe another solution would be better

    Thank you in advance for help and advice

    If the "big" view will always be visible, then I suggest instead to make a dockable panel, similar to what you find in many apps such as Visual Studio.
    Nobody cares how it works as long as it works

    In addition to zerver's suggestion, MFC App Wizard can create that for you in a few clicks.
