Control Dock question

[DBC User]

I am trying to put 2 controls in a page where I want the first control
to have 80% of the screen and the second control 20%. How can I do
that?

I used control property to set the first one to Top and the second one
to Bottom and is not working properly. I am loosing the first controls
bottom portion.

Any help please?

Thanks.

One control needs to use DockStyle.Fill

Sample code:

Panel p1 = new Panel();
p1.BackColor = Color.Red;
p1.Width = this.Width / 5;
p1.Dock = DockStyle.Left;
Panel p2 = new Panel();
p2.BackColor = Color.Blue;
p2.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
this.Controls.A dd(p1);
this.Controls.A dd(p2);

Add them in the reverse order or add p2.BringToFront () at end. The order in
which you add controls has an effect when one is "Fill".
