C# and FlowLayoutPanel

7 New Member
Hello.
Is there a way to use a FlowLayoutPanel and be able to change the FlowDirection every time it goes on a new row? (I also need to have WrapContents enabled). What I want to obtain is something like a snake effect as in if a have a FlowLayoutPanel expanded on 5 rows for example, I need it to have the FlowDirection LeftToRight on the first row, RightToLeft on the 2nd, LeftToRight on the 3rd and so on. Or maybe could someone point me towards another approach.
Thanks in advance. Bye!

The TableLayoutPane l may be a better solution for you - it has built in support for auto-sizing columns and rows, as well as auto-size for the whole panel

If FlowLayoutPanel's AutoScroll is set to true, there appears a scroll bar on the right. Normally, users would expect the contents is scrolled while they are dragging the scroll bar. Well, it does, but not when the Windows's "Show window contents while dragging" is disabled. Almost all the Windows' common coltrols scrolls the contents while dragging even if that option is disabled. So, I think FlowLayoutPanel should behave like other...

Hi there, I am trying to implement drag and drop reordering of controls that are placed in a FlowLayoutPanel control but unfortunately as the control collection doesn't have an "insert" method I am having to use the SetChildIndex method, which has some rather adverse side effects which can lead to 2 items having the same index. Would anyone know of another way to implement this functionality? For such a great control this is really...

Is there an upper limit on what FlowLayoutPanel will display? I wrote a test that adds 395 buttons to a flowlayoutpanel and it stopped displaying them after button 310, cutting 310 in half. It allocated enough room in the frame. There's just no button visible after button 310. This is not a frivolous question as I'm using flowlayoutpanel for a photoview layout in a home inventory program. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi, I want to make a toolbox form (like the one in Adobe Photoshop), so I would like to put many buttons one beside the others (beside, over and under, just like the toolbox in photoshop). I thought FlowLayoutPanel would be the thing to go, but I can't remove the space between my buttons even if I put all zeros (0) in margin and padding. Is there something I'm missing? How can I remove this space (±8px between buttons)

I've read several articles/blogs/threads about anchoring/docking child controls in a FlowLayoutPanel. It sounds like it *should* work, but I can't get it to work for the life of me. Jon Skeet: I've created a short and complete sample to illustrate the problem. Beat you to it! :0) I would really appreciate if anyone could take a look at this and tell me what the magic trick is to make this work. All I want is to have the child...

Hello! I have a FlowLayoutPanel placed on a form, and I'm filling it with some custom-panel controls (containing label and two checkboxes). The problem is, I want to hide horizontal scrollbar. I set DockStyle of every panel to Top, but it doesn't work. It shows two scrollbars, with horiz. scrollbar only moving for vert. scrollbar, since the whole panel is not visible (the portion behind vert. scrollbar). I've tried settings AutoScroll =...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
