I am using a TableLayoutPanel to display information about a directory of video files. Each file will have 2 rows (a row of info (filename, size, etc) and a row of thumbnails). I can get the row of thumbnails for the files to create correctly, however, the row of information only shows the last file processed.
Dim lbl1 as New Label
Dim lbl2 as New Label
Dim lbl3 as New Label
Dim lbl4 as New Label
I want to create a 2-high, 6-wide grid with labels in the top row and text boxes in the bottom row. Creating the six labels and the six text boxes is easy. Main Question: How do I stuff them into the TableLayoutPanel at the locations I want?I assume that I write the labels as I would any other label, and read and write the text boxes as I would any other text box.Secondary question: Why do all Microsoft's examples do stuff I never need to do, and never do the simple stuff I need to do?
when the form loads, there is a table and i use code to set the row count to a variable from a previous page. this works fine. the problem i am having is that i cant get the row height sizes to be evenly spaced, there is 1 huge row then heaps of tiny ones
I need to change the rowspan, columnspan properties of a control(textbox) when they are within a TableLayoutPanel (net 2008 using c# or vb.net) At runtime the property is not available, but is at design time
SubMy problem is that I want to be able to determine the CHECKBOX checked state within this sub. The sub is being called when the checkbox is checked, but I can't seem to find a way to do the conditional.
For a winForm I'm building, I'm working with a TableLayoutPanel which has an arbitrary number of Textboxes and two buttons to add or remove boxes, + and -. The + and - buttons appear directly below the Textbox to which the user has given focus like so:
In my application i need to resize the TableLayoutpanel dynamically..when i resize this control automatically resize rows and columns equal size. I wrote below code it's working but it's working very slow.
Private Sub tbpanel_Resize(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Try Dim iColCount As Integer = tbpanel.ColumnCount
Resizing a form with a TableLayoutPanel is very slow. The form is blinking and it lasts seconds before the form is resized.To find the problem I do the following:
- Make a new windows application
- Add a TableLayoutPanel with 5 rows and 7 columns
- In Form1_Load every cell is filled with a label control.The property Text is set.
- Run the example
Resizing the form is very slow.
What can I do to make resizing faster? Is a TableLayoutPanel always slow when resizing?
I'm trying to dynammicllay add buttons to a form. I figured a TableLayoutPanel would be best for this because i dont know how many buttons i'll have to add. I wanted it to come out looking like the following:
I have created a database using SQL Compact that has two tables. One table called tblRack contains the following columns;
RackID CHAR BinID INT
On my form, I have labels for each RackID. What I want to do is use the TableLayoutPanel to create a layout like this.Here is the code that is generated by the control;
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load 'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'WarehouseInventoryDataSet.tblRack' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed. Me.TblRackTableAdapter.Fill(Me.WarehouseInventoryDataSet.tblRack) End Sub
But nothing is returned, ColumnCount property = 2, Columns = Collection, GrowStyle = Auto. Basically what I want to control to do is sort through the records and return a value in each cell, 2 columns, auto expanding.Do I need to have a separate control for each field in the table or can I dynamically create a control like a TextBox?
I have a class here that is misbehaving, and I can't understand why.Basically, when resizing to make this Form smaller, the buttons begin to extend outside of the TableLayoutPanel that contains them. This is not ideal.This is not an issue about resizing, my project does not allow resizing the main form, the problem occurs on my form before any resizing takes place; I simply demonstrate that the problem gets worse when resizing here as additional information.
I have a form with a TableLayoutPanel with the following properties changed from default:
[Code]....
This is a stripped-to-the-basics version of part of my app. I want to generate a vertical, scrollable array of buttons which will allow me to select groups of photos. Each button will represent a group of one or more photos in a collection. The app will scan a folder and determine which groups are present, and which files are in each group. I create the buttons (with AutoSize), then determine the width of the widest button (at the same time, setting the button anchor property to make all buttons the same width. I then set the form to accomodate the width of the widest button.
I'm using a TableLayoutPanel and I want to get the control at a specific position in the TableLayoutPanel. I want to iterate over the rows and columns of TableLayoutPanel but this question applies equally if I just wanted a single control at a specific row and column.Unfortunately GetControlFromPosition(int column, int row) only retrieves controls that are visible (that is their Visible property is set to True). This is no good to me as sometimes I want to access a control at a specific position that is not visible and then make it visible.
I have had to resort to iterating over the TableLayoutPanel.Controls collection, and then get the position of each control using GetPositionFromControl(Control control) or GetCellPosition(Control control) until I find the position I want.(I'm not sure of the difference between GetPositionFromControl and GetCellPosition methods as MS documentation is meagre, but I'll ask that question separately).
I am dynamically displaying some controls in a TableLayoutPanel. The problem I'm faced with is that I want the controls to be displayed in a specific order, instead of just filling the TableLayoutPanel from 0,0 till the end of the panel.
I have 5 columns and 5 rows.
1st row is for buttons only, 2nd row for combobox, 3rd row for radio button.
I have a routine which allows me to expand the size of my DataGridView within a TableLayoutPanel. Effectively it repositions the DGV to the first row and first column of the TableLayoutPanel that it is in using the SetRow and SetColumn methods of the TableLAyoutPanel. Then it sets the column and row span by passing the row and column count properties of the TableLayoutPanel to the SetColumnSpan and SetRowSpan methods. It work fine. There are two buttons on the form, One expands the DGV the other returns it to its original state.
My question is, how would I set this up if I wanted to do this for all the controls in this TableLayoutPanel and/or every control on every other TableLAyoutPanel on my form. I am assuming I have to use a class as I would have to create an abundance of public variables to pass the row/colum and row/column span starting positions to.[code]....
I am trying to check if a cell in a tablelayoutpanel contains anything and if it does; clear it.I tried tablelayoutpanel.removeat(1) but I need to check if there is actually anything in there, or else it throws an error.
I suspect I'm being dense here and overlooking the obvious but can anyone tell me how I can get the cellposition of the of the cell within a tablelayoutpanel from my mouse position?I have a tablelayoutpanel with 2 columns and 4 rows and I am handling a DragDrop event of a custom control into it. I want to work out the column and row position of the mouse cursor so I can use setcellposition to put my custom control in the right place but I can't fin
I'm looking for help with using the TableLayoutPanel, I want to use it to display some data from a 2d array, and be able to get the row change color when the mouse is over a row. I cant figure out how to accomplish this task, is this even possible to do with TableLayoutPanel?? I would also like to add a contextual menu when you right click on a row. Here is the part of my code I use to populate the table:
Does using it puts any degradation in the performance of an application like the loading of the form/usercontrol is slower since the TableLayoutPanel has to be instantiated and the controls has to be added to it? I use it extensively and from time to time I combine it with a Panel also so I would like to be enlightened if there is no cause of concern in using it.
I have a form that has a TableLayout Panel, 5 colums and 2 rows(GroupBoxes in one row and Exit Button in second row). Colums are set to 20%each and rows are 90% and 10%. I have dock set to Fill. I have 5Groupboxes, one in each column with about 20 buttons each, anchor is set to Top/Left. Buttons are all set Anchor Top/Left. What do I need to change to get the buttons to expand when the form is resized?
