Dynamically accessing UI controls on a C# Windows Form

[ranjithchev]

Hi,

I have a C# windows form. Initially i might have just a Label and a Text Box present on the form. Then later when there are new requirements i might be adding additional UI controls.

What i want now is I need a way to identify the controls present currently on the form dynamically and set their properties. In my case i specifically want to increase the "Font Size" of all the UI controls present on the form.

This will loop through all controls on a form, if run from within the form.

int count=this.Controls.Count;
for (int x = 0; x < count; x++)
 this.Controls[x].PROPERTYNAME....

You would have to use cast the control to its specific subclass in order to access type specific properties.
Also, I believe fonts for most (if not all) controls are static, but i could be wrong.
