Remarks

This interface is consulted only when the first time the dockable window is being introduced to the system. If the dockable window has already been shown once, the settings through this interface won't apply any more.

To clear the dockable window's states, the application template should be deleted. For example, to clear the dockable window's states in ArcMap, normal.mxt should be removed.
