Normally, what you need is to add a second Panel within the first one, when using “adorner” controls such MenuBar and StatusBar, and use the first panel as the DockHost, and the second one as the ClientHost. You must also set the first panel to Dock.Fill.
i.e. :
FormMain
WinPanel1 <– Dock.Fill, used as the DockHost
WinPanel2 <– Used as the ClientHost
MenuStrip1 <– Dock.Top
