How can I call my windows form elements in my other class in C#

I want to acces a combobox, a chart,... form my form. This is automatically added in my Form1. But now I need the combobox, chart... in another class. How can I reference this to the class DeviceClass? Do I have to make the combobox and others public in my form? Thanks for the help by advance. I tried in DeviceClass to put it like this:
private System.Windows.Forms.ComboBox cboChannels; bit it doesn' work. I think I need to make public it in other way in my from. or do I have to use a return in form?
public class Form1 : System.Windows.Forms.Form

What I would do:
Pass your form as an object to the class
In your form make a method for altering the UI
(for example:
public void WriteTextBox(string ToWrite)
{
TextBoxName.Text = ToWrite;
}
)
Call this method from your main form

SelectIndexChanged not working (C# desktop)

**The autopostback-fix does not work! **
I have a GUI that looks like:
I want to show the details of a cat when it's clicked on.
I used this code for it:
private void listBox_Cats_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
// Get the currently selected item in the ListBox.
Cat cat = listBox_Cats.SelectedItem as Cat;
if (cat != null)
{
tb_ID.Text = cat.ID.ToString();
tb_Name.Text = cat.Name.ToString();
tb_DateArrived.Text = cat.DateArrived.ToString();
tb_IsAdopted.Text = cat.IsAdopted.ToString();
tb_adoptedBy.Text = cat.AdoptedBy.ToString();
}
}
When running however, nothing seems to work. What am I doing wrong?

Your listBox_Cats_SelectedIndexChanged is not bound to the SelectedIndexChanged event of the listBox.
There should be entry in your designer file that looks like:
this.listBox_Cats.SelectedIndexChanged += new System.EventHandler(this.listBox_Cats_SelectedIndexChanged);
You can add it manually if it isn't already there - in InitializeComponent.

Your listbox(listBox_Cats) has Cat as a Complex type so try to get the selected item by below code and see it works.
Cat value = (Cat) this.listBox_Cats.SelectedItem;

c# chart axis not displaying when form is loaded

For some reason the axis and grid is not being displayed on the c# chart. as you can see from the two pictures, the background of the chart is being displayed, but nothing else is. Can anyone help me figure out why the grid and information from the chart is not being displayed?

Your code works fine but you need to add a DataPoint to trigger the Chart's display.
This is most likely because without any data the automatic settings, which are default for most elements, including ChartArea's Size, have nothing to work from. I tried it and after adding even a dummy point the grid and all other nice details will show just fine..:
As you can see clearing the DataPoints will wipe out the chart again..
If you want your Series clean of dummy data you can either delete the dummy after adding the first data or add a dummy series..

c# Form with custom design code doesn't show up

I am currently working on a project that allows the user to design his own WinForm (using DesignSurface). Therefore I wrote an algrotithm to create Designer-Code for the form. Everything works fine, except for one thing: The form, once compiled, won't show up. Everything should be working; I could not figure out what the problem was. Anyways, here's the code:
public partial class mainForm : Form
{
public mainForm()
{

And here's the code that creates the form:
static class Program
{
[STAThread]
static void Main()
{
Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
Application.Run(new mainForm());
}
}
I don't get what's wrong with this code. Maybe someone can help me out here.

For one thing I think the values for ClientSize and Size are clashing. Actually I believe only one should be set and the last one to be set will win.
But the one line that prevents the window from showing up is this:
this.TopLevel = false;
Leave it out or set it to true (the default) and your window will show just fine..
From MSDN:
A top-level form is a window that has no parent form, or whose parent
form is the desktop window. Top-level windows are typically used as
the main form in an application.
So if DesignSurface has set it to false you probably have told it that you are creating something else than a main form.. I believe MDI child windows have it set to false, but I'm not sure, MDI is soo long away..
