Draw A Line Above A Docked Control?
Nov 9, 2011I have a borderless form that I'm "docking" onto the top edge of my screen. Inside of the form, I'm placing a single toolstrip control, which docks across the entire form -> (picture the taskbar to get an idea of what I'm talking about).Because the borderless form has no edge to it, I wanted to draw a black line along the bottom edg` of the form to differentiate the form from the windows or desktop behind it.
The problem that I'm facing is that`the toolstrip will not move "behind" the line when it's docked, no matter how I order the control layers.
I've tried programatically sending the control to back to no avail either.
Any ideas on how to get the line to show above the docked toolstrip?
VS 2005 Right Docked Control Flickers While Resizing?
Nov 3, 2009I have two controls (for example the dockable toolbars) on my main form. Now one to the Left L1, and other to the right R1 now when I resize these controls during run time, slowly by a timer , L1 goes pleasantly.(Because size reduction happens from right to left on a control).
On R1, the problem is different, since it is docked right, every time it is resized, it starts flickering...
Automatically Grow SplitContainer Panel As Docked FlowPanelLayout Control Grows
Feb 1, 2012I have a SplitContainer on a form that has 2 panels. The top panel has a FlowPanelLayout control docked in it and the bottom panel has a DataGridView docked in it. I want the top panel to be collapsed when the form is first shown. As the user adds controls to the FlowPanel I want to grow the top panel just enough to see the controls and visa versa. When the user removes controls from the FlowPanel I want to shrink the top panel. If no controls exist I want the top panel to collapse again.
Can I do this by changing properties of all the controls at design time, because I can't figure out the right combination to make it work? Or do I have to do this programmatically?

View 2 RepliesControl Recommendations - Controls At The Top Of It And A Large DataGridView Is Docked Below All The Controls
Nov 10, 2011I have a maximized form that has controls at the top of it and a large DataGridView that is docked below all the controls. Its kind of like the Ribbon in MS Office. The controls cover about 1/4 of the screen at the top. I would like a way for the user to click a button to hide all the controls then automatically expand into the place the controls were so the user can view more data in the DataGridView and visa versa. For example, in MS Office Excel you can hide the ribbon by clicking a tiny button that has "^" on it.
I'm not very familiar with all the controls in Visual Studio so I would like to hear some recommendations. Is this situation ideal for a SplitContainer or ToolStripContainer or am I way off base here?
Make The Controls Stack And Fill Up The Available Space Left By A Control If The Control Is Hidden Or Removed From The UltraGridBagLayoutPanel?
Sep 8, 2011I am wondering if anyone has any idea how to make the controls stack and fill up the available space left by a control if the control is hidden or removed from the UltraGridBagLayoutPanel.
Example:
[Textbox 1]
[Textbox 2]
[Textbox 3]
[Textbox 4]
[Textbox 5]
If I hide [Textbox 3] as of now, it will disperse the space left equally and pad the remaining text boxes with the space. However, I would like it to do this...
[Textbox 1]
[Textbox 2]
[Textbox 4]
[Textbox 5]
Where all the text boxes will move up and [Textbox 4] will completely consume the space left by [Textbox 3].
[2005] Position Form2 Directly Under A Control On Form1?
Jan 23, 2009What I'd like to do is position Form2 underneath the Label on Form1 when the "down arrow" button is clicked. (Basically Form2 should have the same "Left" as the Label on Form1, and its "Top" should be the Top of Label1 plus the Height of Label1.) Please see attached images for further clarification. (I did something like this in VB6 with the SetCursorPos API and the Screen.TwipsPerPixelX and Screen.TwipsPerPixelY properties, but I'm sure there is a better way to do this in .NET.)
