Actually, I'm not looking for the way to expand its width.I have a combobox with a given width.It may occur that one row of the data is partially hidden. I'd like to show the whole line by using tooltip or right-click context menu.What do you think? What's the best approach for this scenario? Anyway, I can't find how to 'catch' the row that I'm currently holding on or passing over by mouse.
In VB.NET for the combo box, I have set the autocomplete mode to "SuggestAppend" and autocomplete source to "ListItems". Its working as expected. But the width of the autosuggest dropdown box is not same as that of combo box and so it looks weird.I tried changing the value dropdown width property but it changes the value of normal dropdown box (seen after clicking down arrow on combobox), and not the autosuggest dropdown box.So what code or property needs to be set to make autosuggest dropdown box the same width as that of combobox width?
I have a picturebox that I am importing an image to. I need it to expand but not expand past my buttons at the bottom of the screen. When I import the image it takes up the whole screen and covers up my buttons.
I have a ComboBox with its datasource being a dataset from a SQL Server database.
The width of its columns are relative to the width of the name of the columns. I would like to increase that width in order to see the content properly and not cuted.[code]...
when ever the form resizes I want my combobox (placed in a toolstrip) to increase or decrease in length to make sure it fits. Say it's about 500px before the combobox and I need about 200px after it. How would I do this? I've tried the various methods for the textbox, but I can't get it to work with the combobox.
I am using VB.NET 2008. I am using propertygrid and have added a few elements. I have 3-4 categories and wanted to know how can I expand/collapse a particular category thru code. I did find a code on net but it didn't work.
What I'm attempting to do is create a Form with two Panels:
Left - A autosizing panel with a dock fill richtextbox
Right - A constant size panel with buttons and features for editing the text
Effect desired: When scaling the size of the form you cannot scale smaller than the initial size of the form, but when expanding the panel on the right is anchored to top right while the richtextbox in the left panel will scale infinitely in either height or width dimensions.
I am sure this is likely some simple property of the textbox or the panel, but cannot seem to locate it. I have the panel on the right anchored at constant size, but cannot seem to get the panel left to autoscale on dimension change.
Ok, So i have googled my ass off looking, I've seen it somewhere were you can make a hyperlink with one line of text so when they click the button it opens that website in there browser and i cant seem to find it, Dose anybody know?.
Next thing, Dose anybody know how to make it so the richtextbox on my page expands when you make the window maximized, I did parent body thing but it covered all the other content on the page :/

This Winforms app has a toolStripComboBox within a MenuStrip container that displays Culture Info languages.The toolStripComboBox's width is not expanding to accommodate the size of the string. The strings are dynamically added to the combobox from underlying code. How do I get the comboboxe's width to expand? Below is an image of the'too narrow' combobox and below that the Properties for the combobox.
I have a drawing program written in VB6 that is capable of printing very thin lines to a laser printer. In VB .net, even though the pen width is set to 1, the thinnest lines are way too "thick". The equivalent line width in VB .net using a pen width of 1 is about the same as the DrawWidth = 4 in VB6. So, my question is, how can I print very thin lines to a laser printer in VB .net?
how to adjust the width of the listview and also the datagridview to the width of the form.Because I want it to be able to follow the form's width and when maximized the form, the listview or the datagridview will also be maximized to the form's width.
I have one data grid which contains a column which contains long string values. When I edit it, the text box which appears is very small. I want to increase the length of text box.
I want the width of the item to be (lets say) 300 ... how do I do this? when I set the autosize property to false (so it doesn't size to the text) and then set the width to 300 it goes past the edge of the menu! This is what i mean ... in the designer as this shows you the width.. but the runtime version is the same:
Is there anyway I can do a a custom screen shot? like the height and width of it? This is what I want to do Left = 18 top = 556 right = 914 bottom = 289 So a regular screenshot on my pc is 1152 by 864. So how would I say do a 300 by 400 screenshot?

I have the following problem: I have a combobox in my application. Sometimes the data inside are too wide to be displayed (see here). Is it possible to use tooltiptext to display the whole data line if the user stands on this line? Or perhaps sending the whole data to a right-click context menu? If so - how?
is there any way to stretch a datagrid's control columns so they would take all the space width of the form?I can set datagrid's dock property to bottom so it will take all the bottom by height but the right side of the data grid will stay empty which is not good.If I set datagrid's dock property to right it jumps all over the form...So I need a way to fill up my datagrid's bottom and right (width) side so I would not have empty space.
I have completed my project and i have one remaining thing to settle... I want to make the combobox not to be able to write yourself. for example there are 4 options ,"A","b", "c","d".If i type w in the combo all the project is ruined!i want not to be able to type at all to prevent this...Which property should i change?

Attached the class i'm using for print.I have 10 fields showing in datagridview. As the last 5 columns header is long, the datagridview is not fitting inside 1 page (not showing all 10 fields in one single page). But is there a way i can "Text Wrap" the top header column and lock in the width, then it should print across one page perfectly.If you know how i can "Text Wrap" the top header column and lock in the width to print across one page?
