Docking & Screen Size

Hi everyone,

I am looking for a method to handle the following problem:
Since my controls are 'Docked' when I try to run the program with a smaller
screen (less pixels) the program appears to prioritise the size of the
control + the bottom of the form and ignores the location property of the
control

Thank you,
Samuel

Maybe its not docking that you need but maybe you need to look at the Anchor
Property.

Yes the Anchor is the correct field, I needed to use all sides

Thank you,
