View 10 RepliesI usually use table-layout-panel container in windows form to enable formre-sizing. But I've got too many label boxes and text boxes in a form to to fit in normal resolution. So I am in need of a similar container which is bothscroll-ableandre-sizable. Can someone tell me how it can be done using table-layout-panel container. If it doesn't support that kind of things then which one does?

I'm creating a program that requires an MDI Parent Container to keep its Children inside of the client area. If you didnt understand id like a MDI to have all the forms it creates to stay inside of the actual MDI.
I've said like the windows desktop becuase thats what the windows desktop is. It's basically a realy advanced MDI container.If you know any methods on how to do this as this may be used a lot by future programmers and it would be great to just link this to the same type of question.

I have the need to maintain a 4:3 aspect ratio on a Video control on a form. The forms (there could be up to 16 in a 4x4 layout) should all maintain a 4:3 aspect ratio when resized depending on clients monitor/resolution. The forms have a border and will keep them. The control is set to fill the form and is the only control on the form. Here is code that I use to create the initial layout:

View 3 RepliesAm devloping an application with multiple forms, which reside on top of a main form. i.e the main application window. The 'child' forms do not need to be linked in any way as they do not pass information to the parent form, as all the parent form does is act as main window.Now I would like to know what is the correct way for the 'main window' form acting as a container for the other forms? So that all the smaller secondary forms stay focused on top of the main application form, that when the main window is minimized, so these forms should do also etc..
I have read other posts and they mention, leaving all the forms standard i.e. IsMdiContainer = False and then using form.showDialog() to call the secondary forms. This did not work for me as what happens is that as soon as I give focus to the main app form, the secondary form disappears underneath.I tired making the main app form IsMdiContainer = True and when it loads calling:
frmMemberForm.MdiParent = Me
Now this works, because I can click off the form and minimize the app etc and the frmMemberForm doesn't disappear. However if i close the MemberForm and reopen it, it looses this property and once again when it looses focus, it will disappear.
I have a custom control of type MyListControl with a Property called NotifiedList. I would like that when selecting that property in the Property Grid at runtime, that a dropdown list is populated with all the instances of type MyListControl that shared the same container as the original control.

I have a solution with several projects most of which are code or control libraries. I have a main windows forms application that references and uses these libraries. What i am trying to do is create a 2nd windows application that extends the main one, but i would like to be able to deploy them as separate exe's.
When i try to add a reference to the new app referencing the main app; all seems fine until i try to run the new app i get several error msgs similar to below:
Error 1 Could not find file 'ADODB.dll' referenced by assembly 'D:Visual Studio 2005ProjectsXXXinDebugXXX.exe.manifest'. <newAppName>
i have tried adding references to all the dll's in the error messages and they are still listed when i try to run the new app. I thought of a few work arounds but they require user changes to maintain separate exe's at deployment. I would like to avoid this if possible.
