VS 2010 Positioning PictureBoxes Inside TabPages?
Aug 16, 2011
I have a series of tabs, each containing a series programatically generated PictureBoxes that are all 480x360. The TabControl is anchored to all 4 edges of the form, so it always takes up the whole area.
I would like the PictureBoxes to behave similarly to how images behave when floated in HTML/CSS. So if I have 5 pictures and the window is only ~900 wide then I will have 3 rows, 2 in the first 2 and 1 in the last. But if the window is then expanded to ~1500 then I get 2 rows - 3 on the first and 2 on the last.
What is the simplest way to achieve this? Is there a built in way?I am planning on repositioning the pictures when SizeChanged fires on the TabControl, or when the selected tab changes.

I am new to this forum, and have search both here and on the interwebz.I don't have my code here right now, but thought I could ask anyways:I have an application that is going to run in fullscreen and display a clock in a defined position on the screen when it is in fullscreen mode. How can I define that position so that the clock appears at that point regardless of resolution on the screen?

I am adding a series of RadioButtons to a GroupBox programatically. By default they are all placed on top of each other. So I use a bit of math to position them all nicely and then resize the GroupBox.
However I notice that the GroupBox has an AutoSize property, but it doesn't seem to be resizing as controls are added.
Is there a better way to position my radio buttons than to specify each one programatically? I mean, can't this stuff be handled automatically by the framework?

I'm making a custom TabControl duplicate and I can't seem to be able to add controls to its TabPages. In fact, they don't show up at all! I've got code that sets their BackColors to Red, and their DockStyle is set to fill, but they just don't show up. Here's my code for the CustomTabControl:
Public Class CustomTabControl
Inherits Control
Private Const TAB_HEIGHT As Integer = 32

I've read that you cant disable individual TabPages, I decided to remove all tabs that's aren't selected.
For i = 0 To mainTabCount - 1
With mainTab.TabPages(i)
[CODE].........
But after saving the contents of my SelectedTab and clicking the 'Close' button I want to restore my removed controls. Is this possible? ATM I'm just dispose of the form containing the TabControl and re-open it w/ ShowDialog.

Tabpages: Using a button, how do I go from tabpage1 to tabpage2? I have it kind of sorted, only not: Button click tabpage1 send to back() or hide() tabpage2 show() The problem with this, is it does not actually turn the page, and the tabpage1 tab still shows at the top. Decimals: Epically basic, I guess. I have calculations that does, for example: 10/6 = 1.666666666667 How do I get it to say 1.667 only?
And Lastly, Graphs: I have a line graph. I have fixed series as a envelope for the variable series to sit in. Again, epically basic - How do I make a series that draws a line for a variable?

taking interest in this post, this is a problem I've had for quite a while.I have a button on a form and when you click it, it makes 3 pictureboxes appear on the form and when you click another button, it makes the pictureboxes move around the form accordingly from a timer. I have this code so far:

I would like it so my users can decide to add images to the form, but every time they add a new form, it is inserted directly below the last one (until the end of the page is reached). Then when the images reach the bottom of the page it starts a new column. I would also like padding around each new image and for the images to rearrange when the form is resized. Is this possible? How would I do this?

I am working a small project where I would like the user to be able to add images to a form, specifying a URL in the tag of pictureBox, so that when it is clicked. They are taken to the website they specified when adding the pictureBox.
I have a separate form for adding the URL and image so I need to pass those variables into the first form.
how to access the Tag property of the individual pictureBox when the user clicks it. Here is my pictureBox creation code which is in the second form:
Dim tool As String
Dim ptext As String
Dim url As String

How do you position controls loaded at runtime to align middle? I'm not looking to match the x y coordinates as the heights vary.
For example loading 2 text boxs and 2 labels.
I've tried using the Anchor and Dock properties but with no joy.
e.g.
txtNewTextBox = New TextBox
txtNewTextBox.Name = "name"
txtNewTextBox.Dock = DockStyle.Fill

I was wondering if there is an addon, or position controls for my website. I hate having to code the location of a button for example.
Isn't there a way to just move it freely around the form as you do in Visual basic or C# for example?

I have a form where I need to place some labels dinamically. Some of the label's height needs to change depending on the string size that will populate the label's text. So what I need to do is position the labels one below the other, after the text has been populated and the height has been set.

I have a system that has a collection of picture boxes.Each picture box allows you to place pointers(Custom control derived from label) on the image, when saved I store the X/Y for the pointers along with other information relevant to the pointers in a database.(See attached image)This way the chart can be reloaded and the pointers be moved or edited.This all works great until I resize a chart, the calculated percentage of size in/decrease often results in a float like in the following example. [code] I position the pointers by top and left, which only accepts integer, the rounding results in significant drift over multiple resizes.

I'm trying to position a small form that will have its top left edge exactly lined up with the bottom left edge of a label. But I am finding this to be impossible to accomplish because of some magical hidden offset that exists somewhere ... I don't know where.
So here's what I got, if I can manage to pilfer out only the relative portions... For the sake of simplicity, I'll focus only on the horizontal positioning below:
Dim FrameSize As Size
Dim TargetHorzFramePos as Single
FrameSize = SystemInformation.FrameBorderSize

My UI currently addsabPageGraphs to a TabControlMain dynamically. I now need to present 4 different views of the same data. I want to do something like the following code indicatesbut there is no 'Add()' method for TabPages by which I can add 4 Tabs to an existing TabPage.How would I accomplish this so that under a specific dynamically added TabPage, the User can select any of 4 new TabPages with a different graph to view.
if (!this.tabControlMain.Contains(this.tabPageGraphs))
{
this.tabControlMain.TabPages.Add(this.tabPageGraphs);
