2 ways: Different views attached to the same document or Using SplitterViews There should be examples for that

I think better to USE cascading MDI childs to achive photoshop like UI.

Maybe for 2 or 3 views, but you memtioned 6 in your original post. That's a lot of different views to visually take in all at once, regardless of whether they are splitters or cascading MDI children. Do you really need that many? Judy
hi, what is the interface or function to access the taskbar icons?...

Splitters are good if you don't have many views or if that views are not going to be moved or something like that. If you want to have "free" movement views, to make them visible or invisible depending on menu "view" and so on... it will be better to have more than one view with different childframes, it will give you more freedom to manage them. It is not optimized (it was my first try, but it works) but you can have a look to this message[^] to open more than one view with only one document, and to this one[^] to manage how to close them priorizing the "main window".
