• Windows Forms Panel control autoscroll problem

  I've had a problem with the Panel control in the past.  I had child controls that would adjust their height based on the available width.  These were docked one after another to the top of the panel.  The idea was to have something that would reformat itself after the user resized the form (similar to what IE does when you have a&nb ...Show All

• Windows Forms UserControl Terminate, Close, Exit, etc.

  Does anyone know of a way to determine when a UserControl is being closed by the user in C# There used to be a Terminate event in VB6 that you could capture. I can't find anything like that for UserControl. UserControls exist on a Form. There is no way to close UserControls. You close the containing Form. Or is that what you're asking How a UserControl can detect when its parent form is being closed If so, the UserControl can just subscribe to its parent's Form.FormClosing event like this: namespace FormCloseCapture { public partial class UserControl1 : UserControl { public UserControl1() { InitializeComponent(); ...Show All

• Windows Forms Need help permanently maintaining the rectangle after a button click

  Hi all, This is a very simple UserControl which only contains a button on it and when this button is clicked, it draws a Rectangle object. However, I am having a problem that this Rectangle gets disappeared after it's covered by some other windows form(I hope you understand what I mean by this ). I know that if I want to permanently maintain it I have to draw it in the paint method but I want to draw this rectangle only when the button is clicked so it doesn't seem appropriate if I place the code in the paint method. So...would anyone please tell me how this can be done in a way which most people would prefer Thanks a lot. Publ ...Show All
