+
+## Description
+
+By default, when the user starts dragging a window in RadDock, Docking Assistant appears. Docking Assistant uses DockingGuidesTemplates to show hints to help the user to relocate the window. For more information please refer to [Using the DragDropService]({%slug winforms/controls/dock/architecture-and-features/using-the-dragdropservice%})

+
+## Solution
+
+To achieve this, you should handle the **DragDropService.PreviewDockPosition** event of RadDock. **AllowedDockPosition** property gets or sets the allowed dock position for the hit-tested drop target which you can customize and set only the relevant positions for you.
+
+Please refer to the following code snippet:
+
+````C#
+
+DragDropService service = this.radDock1.GetService<DragDropService>();
+service.PreviewDockPosition += Service_PreviewDockPosition;
+
+private void Service_PreviewDockPosition(object sender, DragDropDockPositionEventArgs e)
+{
+    if (e.GuidePosition == DockingGuidesPosition.Center)
+    {
+        e.AllowedDockPosition = AllowedDockPosition.None;
+    }
+}
+
+````
+````VB.NET
+Dim service As DragDropService = Me.radDock1.GetService(Of DragDropService)()
+AddHandler service.PreviewDockPosition, AddressOf Service_PreviewDockPosition
+
+Private Sub Service_PreviewDockPosition(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As DragDropDockPositionEventArgs)
+        If e.GuidePosition = DockingGuidesPosition.Center Then
+            e.AllowedDockPosition = AllowedDockPosition.None
+        End If
+    End Sub
+
+````
+
+>note Feel free to customize further the **AllowedDockPositions** with different options according to  your needs.
