I'm using Modern Metro UI framework installed from Nugetin a Win Forms application and the scrollbars don't take on the styling until interacted with. That includes resizing the application window.
Scroll bar on initial load, not styled:
Style taking affect after using scroll bar:
Any ideas on why this is happening? The scrollbars are not programmatically added. I'm using the metro gridwhich I believe is the data grid view.
I solved this issue by removing the data grid and using a new one.

I'm using the datarepeater that comes with the visual basic power pack in a winforms application. The problem I'm having is that the control doesn't allow swiping inside the container to scroll up and down. You can still use the scroll bar itself, but the width of the scroll bar is too skinny and is hard to get a hold of sometimes. This baffles me, because swipe scrolling on all the other winforms controls seems to work fine. This is probably a longshot, but can anybody help me?
I have a WPF control in an ElementHost on a WinForms form. I've added the Form to a DockPanel Suite pane. The WPF content displays correctly when the Form is floating, or docked left/right/top/bottom, but when DockState is Document the WPF content disappears, leaving a blank docked Form.
I've experimented with creating empty test WPF controls, and this behaviour occurs whenever an ElementHost is used on a WinForm, and docked using DPS. Can anyone suggest where to look for a fix ? I've set the WPF rendering to Software only, but it doesn't help with this problem.
Many thanks.
WinForms App using .NET 4.0, VS2012 on Windows 7 on VMWare Fusion on MacBook Pro.
After much poking around, the problem turned out to be due to a ToolStripContainer that was on the same form as the DPS DockPanel. When the ElementHost form was docked as document, this was being rendered over the top of it. I replaced the ToolStripContainer with a separate ToolStrip and MenuStrip (following the DockSample), and all works fine.
I am looking to make the scrollbar of a dataviewgrid invisible but I still want to keep the functionality of scrolling. This is done on .net windows form platform.
dataGridViews1.ScrollBars = ScrollBars.None;
Well finally I wasn't able to make it invisible therefore I just used a workaround where I add a panel over the scrollbar to hide it. Thanks!

You should make yourself familiar with the Anchor and Dock properties of the controls. They are great tools for this kind of work.
Note though that they will alter the size of the controls only, they will not affect font size.
consider that window forms and WPF are very different, especially about the UI management and controls nesting / UI composition.
I have seen some articles describing what you are trying to do now in windows forms, long ego, it's something called control scaling if I recall well.
Use Anchor and Dock properties for simple stuff and SizeChanged event for more complicated stuff. UI positioning API is much more limited than WPF and you will probably have to do stuff like scaling manually.
Is there a way to inject a panel with a custom scrollbar?
I have the following issues with the current scrollbar:
the software I create has to work on both Compact framework and full framework
on the cf a touchscreen is attached and the default scrollbars aren't touchscreen-friendly
On the full framework the behavior of the scrollbars is sometimes strange.
All the controls are skinnable in the application, and so is my current custom scrollbar, but the looks of the default scrollbar doesn't fits with all the skins.
One way is to have 2 panels as one custom control and move the one over the other, but I prefer not to implement it that way becaus of all the overhead.
You have to bear some overhead with this approach. Set the "AutoScroll" property of Panel to false. Set a VScrollBar and process it with the Panels resize events.
