I am trying to add another panel (with a splitter) to the right of the following image.
It currently has a Panel on the left with a splitter and 2 panels in the middle with a splitter.
How can i add a panel to the right of these, the panel must go all the way to the top and bottom of the form and be resizable with a splitter? thanks
Change Dock to None of the main split container (I guess its name is splitContainer1).
Add a new SplitContainer inside your form.
Drag and drop entire splitContainer1 inside the left panel of the new split container.
Change Dock of splitContainer1 back to Fill.
Change Dock of splitContainer3 (the new one) to Fill.
Starting from a blank form

I place a panel with dock type left and place 2 panels with dock type top in the parent panel. But I want to place a gap between these 2 panels because the margin is not working on that panels. How to do that in C# winform? Please help...
I don't think you can when docking. What you could do is dock one Panel as container and then put another Panel inside that, leaving a margin as required and then anchoring to all four sides. The inner Panel is then used for your other controls rather than the outer.
Alternatively, you could use Anchor instead of Dock, which would allow you to explicitly position each Panel. The correct combination of anchored edges would simulate docking, i.e. top, left and bottom for the left Panel and top, left and right for the top Panels.
I guess the other alternative would be to introduce additional Panels to act specifically as separators between those you intend to use as containers.
I have a few Button controls in a FlowLayoutPanel, and I want to set them precisely at middle bottom of Form.
In the image below I set the Button precisely at middle by setting the FlowLayoutPanel padding manually by 400 to left.
But when I try to resize or restore down the buttons wont at middle anymore because of manually set of padding.
Is there anything that I can do to set the buttons in middle of FlowLayoutPanel whenever I try to resize it. I'm following the answer base on
this post to add and remove buttons dynamically.
Using a single cell TableLayoutPanel which is suitable for centering the content and an auto-size FlowLayoutPanel you can achieve what you are looking for:
Perform these settings on the controls:
Add your images to a FlowLayoutPanel
Set AutoSize of FlowLayoutPanel to true
Set AutoSizeMode of FlowLayoutPanel to GrowAndShrink
Set Anchor property of FlowLayoutPanel to Top, Bottom
Use a TableLayoutPanel for hosting the FlowLayoutPanel
Use a single Column and a single Row in TableLayoutPanel.
Set Dock property of TableLayoutPanel to Bottom.
This way, when you add or remove images dynamically, all images will be shown at bottom center of the form.
Question
How can I stop my datagridview from moving underneath the panel when the window is resized?
Example
What I have tried? And what I would like.
I have tried to dock the datagridview to the top on the window, but it just docks under the panel.
I have tried docking both to the top and docking one to the top and the other to the bottom, however they both just take half the screen up.
What I would like is if the datagridview docked to the bottom of the panel.
You have to modify the Anchor property on your controls. Based on what you've provided, the DataGridView control is probably anchored Bottom, Right, and you should anchor it Top, Left to match what the panel control's anchor is.
Also, if you do want the grid to be anchored to the bottom, right, you can set the MinimumSize property of your form accordingly so that it can never be resized such that the controls "collide".
It's not possible without third-party controls to dock one control to another control.
I need to place 3 picture boxes, which are all in a own panel, side by side.
Conditions:
all pictures should stay side by side in same distance to each other
the pictures should grow and shrink during resizing the Form
the Panels under the pB's should always act like a border to the pictures
it should be used as much as possible space
How could I do this in Visual Studio 2010 C#, Windows Forms?
I would suggest that you use a TableLayoutPanel with 3 columns, and place the pictureboxes within the given cells.
Anchor this panel to the parent form, so that when you resize the form, the panel will follow. Since you have panels underneath (as per picture sample) you could anchor to Left, Right and Top. This will anchor the panel to top, left, and will resize all the way to the right for as long as the form goes. Add Bottom if you need to.
The pictureboxes would have the Dock set to DockStyle.Fill.
You could nest more panels within panels, but do it in a sane way :-)
I think ,following these instructions will fulfill your requirements
1)right click on other panels and select bring to front
2)anchor the other panels to bottom
3)anchor all other panels panels and picture boxes to top,bottom ,left,right using properties
You can manage the interfaces selection ,un-selecting anchors
In Form have ToolStrip and Panel. ToolStrip's Dock value is set to Top, Panel's to Fill. But ToolStrip intervens into Panel and hide first line of Panel. How to set, that toolstrip doesn't hide panel?
I don't want to use MenuStrip, which don't hide anything, but for some reasons i don't want to use it.
Thanks for reply
You have to change the order of the 2 control in Document Outline.
In order to do that go to :
View -> Other Windows -> Document Outline
or use the shortcut keys
ctrl + w, u
then reorder the two controls. If I'm right you should put your Panel first and your ToolStrip after.
