  The ordered list of the visible dock elements.
• public ArrayList<DockElement> Elements { get; }
  The list of the all containing dock elements.

Static methods:

• protected static void move_element (List<DockElement> elements, int from, int to, List<weak DockElement>? moved = null)

Creation methods:

• public DockContainer ()
  Creates a new container for dock elements.

• public virtual void prepare ()
  Do some special implementation specific preparation
• public bool add (DockElement element, DockElement? target = null)
  Adds a dock-element to the collection.
• public void prepend (DockElement element)
  Prepends a dock-element to the collection. So the dock-element will appear at the first position.
• public bool add_all (ArrayList<DockElement> elements)
  Adds a ordered list of dock-elements to the collection.
• public bool remove (DockElement element)
  Removes a dock-element from the collection.
• public bool remove_all (ArrayList<DockElement> elements)
  Removes all given dock-elements from the collection.
• public bool clear ()
  Clears and therefore removes all dock-elements from the collection.
• protected virtual void update_visible_elements ()

• protected abstract void connect_element (DockElement element)
• protected abstract void disconnect_element (DockElement element)

Signals:

• public signal void elements_changed (List<DockElement> added, List<DockElement> removed)
  Triggered when the collection of elements has changed.
• public signal void states_changed ()
  Triggered when the state of an element changes.
• public signal void positions_changed (List<weak DockElement> elements)
  Triggered anytime element-positions were changed.
