Good afternoon.
I'm having a problem resizing a listview in a form.
In the normal position the listview is placed correctly as you can see in the image.
When i maximize the form, i get a huge space between the top controls and the listview.
How can i solve this situation, so the listview can expand and stay near the other controls?
Thank you.
Set the ListView's Anchor property to all four sides.

So I'm having troubles making my FlowLayoutPanel work the way I want.
When adding multiple controls to it so that vertical scroll appears and when scrolled to bottom I don't want controls to be touching the bottom border of FlowLayoutPanel.
Padding works properly for all but the bottom side, controls are properly spaced away from the edges of the FlowLayoutPanel, I don't know why bottom is special.
I need a solution that does not include adding invisible/transparent controls to it.
The closest I got to what I want was lowering the clientsize by some amount, but then in that area control doesn't repaint so it shows parts of added controls forever.
Kind of fixed with with larger margins on child controls, so I'm closing this.
I have a DataGridView on a Windows Form that can have up to 25 columns and up to many thousands of rows. There are no defined columns in the DGV, these are dynamically generated in the code. No columns are frozen. The DGV works as expected in the version I inherited. Then I got my hands on it…
I am adding a toolbar to the form. The issue I am facing is that when I lower the top of the DGV to fit just below the toolbar and ensure the DGV fits on the form, I lose my horizontal scroll bar. I can scroll the thumb off the form, so it is no longer visible. My Document Count field shows as expected in the image below.
DGV no horizontal bar and thumb scrolled off form
Some potentially related field values from DGV Properties:
AutoSizeColumnsMode = None
AutoSizeRowsMode = None
Dock = None
ScrollBars = Both
Any input would be much appreciated.
Added a Screen Shot to help clarify the issue.
Design View of the form
Solved! Thanks #Luke #LarsTech for suggestions. Not sure why but recreating it solved the horizontal scroll bar issue. I deleted my grid and recreated it in the Designer just like the previous one. This time I used Dock Right instead of None or Fill. I did use BringToFront also, because SendToBack shrunk my toolbar to half the size. I lost my blank area on the right of the grid, but i can live with that.
Thank you so much for the help!
I am using vb.net, I have created a form and there are two listviews in that form which are getting filled by button event. Every thing is going smooth, but the problem is when my exeute my project and in the form, when I maximize the form window(by clicking maximize button provided in the top right corner) the size of listview remains same while form maximizes, this looks odd, what i need is to maximize the listview also with the increase in the form window size.
I searched in google a lot and i found one property 'dock' of listview which i can set left, full, right,bottom,top or none, but this doesn't serve my purpose.

Better than Dock property, you have to use "Anchor" property. All controls on the Form has Anchor Top,Left by default, but you can change it in the property window or directly by code. You can know more about anchor on this site: http://www.homeandlearn.co.uk/NET/nets13p1.html
Anchoring two Listviews on a form depends on the form design, but SplitContainer control will be really usefull if you want that both Listview changes the size on form resize.
I have one gridview which was in a panel and I set panel's Scrollbars property as vertical and height 200px. Gridview has number of rows (say 1000). If i scroll down and selected a 900th row,scroll bar will move to top.I want to focus on that row after selection(ie.scroll bar will be on the same position when we selected). Is there anyone to help me?
your gridview can have scrollbars too I think.
Otherwise try using datagridview. they are slightly different with properties.
If that doesnt work check the properties of your gridview.
Are you allowed to edit or select anything?
I think if you answer those questions the solution will show itself.
Hope this helped.
I'm working on a UI for a WPF application. I have in my window Stack Panel with some Expanders inside. In each Expander are some controls, one being a List Box. What I want to do is have the List Box resize (shrink or grow) when the window is resized. At the moment, when I re-size, the expander are getting clipped off but the listbox (sometimes very long in height) remains unchanged. How do I go about making this happen.
A good example is in Outlook 2007, the "Mail Folder" on the left shrinks with window size but the other controls don't.
Thanks in advance.
The StackPanel won't push a height on its children - it allows each child to size as big as it likes. You might try using a Grid around the Expanders, and giving each Row a star height so that the contents resize.
Thanks Paul,
I've found something interesting myself.
I've extended the grid control with a simple method that fires when the expander is expanded, I would call this.
RowDefinitions[GetRow(expander)].Height = (expander != selectedExpander) ?
new GridLength(1, GridUnitType.Auto) :
new GridLength(1, GridUnitType.Star);
This worked very nicely.
