I currently have the problem that my labels are centered in the parent VBox, which lies in a Fixed Container.
Change the Xalign for the label to be 0. By default it is 0.5 which will center the text. Setting this to 0 will tell Gtk to align the text to the left.
You can find this in the Miscellanous Alignment Properties in the Properties window.
The "Miscellaneous Alignment Properties" list in the designer properties control is where you specify vertical and horizontal justification.
Horizontal (XAlign):
0 is left-aligned
0.5 is centered
1 is right-aligned
Vertical (YAlign):
0 is aligned to the TOP
0.5 is centered
1 is aligned to the BOTTOM
On controls (such as the label) that provide a Justification property in the Stetic designer (which is used by Visual Studio for the Mac) the Justification property is ignored.

How i Can Add Horizontal scrollbar for panel , i tried to make AutoScroll property to True , but this just show the vertical Scrollbar.
what i want is when the client minimize the form a Horizontal Scrollbar appear so he can see all the controls in panel, I'm using form without borders.
Maximize `Form :
Minimize 'form':
Try setting programmatically the panel box properties:
panel.Autoscroll = True
panel.VerticalScroll.Visible = True
panel.HorizontalScroll.Visible = True
Try adjusting your panel size then don't adjust the size of width of each data inside of it. I suppose it is because the data is EXACTLY fitted on your panel box.
Try looking in the Panel properties. There you can see the AutoScroll property. The AutoScroll property:
Indicates whether scroll bars automatically appear when the control contents are larger than its visible area.
BUT, if your data inside the Panel is EXACT, horizontal scroll bar or vertical scrollbar will not appear in your Panel.
I'm trying to make a RichTextBox have fixed size and blank space flexible (like Word, WordPad), I made this:
Set Dock to Fill
Set MaximumSize to 600,0 (0 is wildcard for sizes) (Width=600 and Height=0 -wildcard)
I got this: blank spaces are flexible and RichTextBox size is fixed, but RichTextBox is not positioned at center.
I have some options:
Set padding to auto (I suppose that it's not possible)
Set margin to auto (I suppose that it's not possible AND margins not works in winforms)
What do I have to do to position RichTextBox to center?
Use anchor instead of dock.
Dock is designed for Size, Anchor is designed for Location
Your problem is based on location, locate your box to center instead of make Dock margins.
I'm writing my Wix installer and encountered some UI issue.
I have a Dialog with a Text Control inside that attached to a Property and can contains different length of text in that Property.
The issue is that I set this Property with large width and height and depends on the text length it could be aligned correctly to the Width and Height of the Dialog or it could be on the top of the Dialog because it's only 2 words.
Medium text length:
Long text length
Same dialog but look funny at first image and not very clear and second image.
How can I align the text to be center whenever the text is not filling the whole Control?
How do you set the maximum range for the horizontal and vertical scrollbar in a panel
in VB.NET 2008 ?
Set the AutoScroll property for the Panel to True. That ensures that the Panel automatically adjusts the scrollbars to keep all controls inside the panel viewable. You can override this behavior, in case you don't use controls or want a margin on the far end, by setting the AutoScrollMinSize property.
Is there a way to align a text in a label to its absolute center (compact framework)?
Not a topCenter but a center of the label.
I want to avoid putting a label into a panel (container)...
The underlying OS (Windows CE) doesn't support vertical centering of statics, which is why it's not supported in the CF. You'll have to eitehr manually center the label or just use DrawText on the "parent" and draw in the text you want without any underlying Label control at all.
