Hi Yuk Tang,
Use Panels and Splitter controls, and set docking and anchor
properties as necessary
I think there is a walkthrough in MSDN for this... (Walkthrough:
Creating a Multipane User Interface with Windows Forms) at
ms-help://MS.VSCC/MS.MSDNVS/vbcon/html/vbtskCreatingIntricateUserIn
terfaceWithWindowsApplicationObjects.htm
It's pretty detailed and should clear your concepts...
If it is still unclear, I will post exact steps to make an Windows
explorer like interface.
Yes please. Perhaps I have a different edition of MSDN, but your
link doesn't bring anything up in SDK, and googling by those keywords
doesn't find anything either.
I've added two panels, got coordinates for them, set their locations
and sizes using lefts, tops, widths and heights (is there a neater
way?). Now I'm looking to contain a form inside a panel. As for
splitters, I have no idea how they work (MSDN isn't too helpful
either).
I'm starting to think that MSDN is great for code, not so good for
explaining ideas.
