Multiple display of panel on the click of a buttton

[kollahus]

Hi

I have a panel control in Winform, on the panel I have few controls like datecontrol, textbox,combobox. When I click on a button callled add I want to display the panel. I used the following code.Its working fine.

private void add_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
 
            panel3.Visible = true;
 
        }
 

Now if I click the Add button again I want the panel to appear one more time on the form.I mean mutliple click to add button should display the same panel serveral times. How do I do this.

You will have to create a new panel each time you click the button, instead of just showing a hidden panel created at design time. Of course you will have to work out the location of the new panel so it doesn't wind up under pre-existing controls.

            Panel AnotherPanel = new Panel();
            AnotherPanel.Width = 100;
            AnotherPanel.Height = 100;
            AnotherPanel.BackColor = Color.Red;
            AnotherPanel.Location = new Point (50,50);
            this.Controls.Add(AnotherPanel);
            AnotherPanel.Show();
