Dynamically resizing controls

Any idea, how to dynamically resize controls on the form when, the form is
resized, let say maximized? Is there any elegant, logical way to do this

Hi,

You could either Dock and Anchor the controls on the form, or
set the Height/Width properties of the controls relatively when the Form changes size.

Hi UmmagummA,

Like Rakesj Rajan said, you can use Dock and Anchor. If you anchor a control to both left and right it will resize in width as the form changes. Top + Bottom will resize its height.

Happy coding!
