<h2>TabbedGroups</h2>
Moving a page to another leaf could cause a crash to occur and has been fixed.<p />
Moving a page to another leaf could cause the pages to disappear and has been fixed.<p />
AtLeastOneLeaf set to <i>false</i> in <i>InitializeComponent</i> method would not be honoured
and a leaf would be created and shown when the form is shown. This has been corrected.<p />
ActiveLeaf is no longer persisted into <i>InitializeComponent</i> as it makes no sense to do so.<p /><h2>TabControl</h2>
New property <i>DragOverSelect</i> added so that when dragging over the tab control it will cause
a change in tab page after a short delay when hovering over a tab page header. This can be turned off
if not required by setting the this property to <i>false</i>.<p />
New method <i>TabPageFromPoint</i> added that takes a client based mouse position and returns the tab
page from that position. This matches against the tab page headers to find a match. Returns
<i>null</i> if no match can be found.<p /><h2>Docking</h2>
Saving a configuration would often crash and especially when any of the content are in
the auto hidden state. This has been corrected and should never crash.<p />
Changes to the content title or image will now be reflected immediately in the auto hidden
tab stubs that are visible at the edge of the docking area. Previously the text or images
were not updated until the content was un-autohidden.<p /></content>

<h2>Building the samples</h2>
Each sample has been written in <i>C#</i> and <i>VB.NET</i>, so you should navigate to the appropriate language
version contained below the <i>Magic Library 1.7.4\Samples</i> directory. Double click the solution file
found and you will be presented with the list of available samples. Righ click the sample application of interest and
select the <i>"Set as StartUp Project"</i> option. Now select the <i>"Debug \ Start"</i> menu option and the
projects will be automatically compiled and the selected sample started.<p /><h2>Building the Magic source code</h2>
Navigate to the <i>Magic Library 1.7.4\Source</i> directory and you will find a Visual Studio .NET solution
called <i>MagicLibrary</i>. Double click this solution and you will be presented with a project that includes all
the source code for building an unsigned version of the Magic Library. The output will be placed by default in the
<i>Magic Library 1.7.4\Bin</i> directory and given the name <i>MagicLocalLibrary.dll</i> to distinguish it from the
official signed version that is in the same location and called <i>MagicLibrary.dll</i>.<p /><h2>Using Magic in your own applications</h2>
Either create a new project or load the existing project of interest and right click the <i>References</i> folder.
The will present a dialog box with the <i>.NET</i> tab already selected. Navigate down the list of assemblies in
this tab until you find the <i>Magic</i> entry which should then be selected. Your project now has a reference to
the official signed build of <i>Magic</i>. When you decide to distribute your project you will need to also distribute
the signed assembly which is contained in the <i>Magic Library 1.7.4\Bin</i> directory and called <i>MagicLibrary.dll</i>.
It is recommended that you add the signed version into the GAC during your own installation process.
