View 17 RepliesI have a VB.NET MDI WinForms app. My users have been complaining about form creep (as they call it), this is where each time you open a specific form within the main MDI window it opens slightly below and to the right of the location it loaded previously - i.e. it starts in the top left of the window and works its way down to the bottom right.I have to agree with them that this is extremely irritating, is there any way to prevent this?
The code to load the forms is:
frmPurchaseInvoiceSelect.Show()
frmPurchaseInvoiceSelect.MdiParent = Me
I can address this somewhat by setting the forms start-up positions to 'Manual' but then they just open directly on top of each other in the top left of the screen.

Tried searching with various queries to try and find the right wording but no luck.I'm new to Visual Basic - only started a couple hours ago.Probably something simple but I can't seem to find the correct function or anything.I have the form/window open, and then I overlap said form with a window of another application.
