How do I get two panels to share a parent's width in Devexpress

This sounds simple to me but I'm not sure if there's a best/suggested way to do it. I'd like my UI to have a panel docked along the top, split into two panels, left and right, that always share the width of the parent equally. There'll be a minimum overall width so nothing gets squashed, but on resizing I'd like the two panels' widths to always be equal.

I thought of using a split container control but it doesn't do what I want in this case as I can't disable manual resizing. My current idea is just to override the onResize method (forgot the exact name), and just manually set the two widths to parent.width/2, but it 开发者_Python百科seems a bit roundabout, and potentially slow if it's calling onResize for every pixel's worth of movement.

Is there a better way to do this, or a control/layout that handles this for me?

Disclaimer: I'm using an older version of DevExpress, 10.1.4. It's not my decision and I don't think I can get the team to upgrade at the moment. Using C# on .Net platform 3.5.

I would drop a couple of panels onto the form and set their Size within the form's ResizeEnd event handler. This looks to be the best solution from my point of view.

You can use the XtraLayoutControl to achieve this, but that might be overkill.

Otherwise, you'd have to do it manually.
