UserControl inheritting from Button

system.windows. forms.button instead of the forms.usercontr ol ?

I want to add a fiew features to my button and still be able to drag it
on to the form with the ide

i got working code, just a class that inherits from
system.windows. forms.button but then i need to do all the design by code

You cannot create a usercontrol inheriting from button. You can inherit
a control from button:

Public Class MyButton
Inherits Button

Hi sotto,

If you've changed the inheritence then I assume you're having trouble with
it showing up in the toolbox? Well, to "get around" this, simply build your
application then alter the toolbox, right click then "Add/Remove Items..."
and choose Browse. Then select the application you've just compiled. The
button control will show up in the list and you can drag it around till your
heart's content.

I'm trying to create a multi-user interactive whiteboard that has the ability to load a 'background' image to draw ontop of. The client/server needs to load a transparent layer for each user that connects. This is so the individual user layers can be cleared. Each layer is painted on by the user it is assigned to, so the layer must respond to mouse events.

All, I have searched google and the newsgroups but can't find anything the same as what I am experiencing (though I may have missed something).

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
