How To Change Size Of Datagridview With Window Inn C#

Dec 21st, 2019,03:05 AM

I accept a laptop with a xiv inch screen. I am trying to modify the width of a datagridview to fit the width of the form it is in. I fix the width of my form in the form load:

Code:

                          Me.Location = New Betoken(0, 65)         Me.Width = 1560         Me.Height = 728

I too evidence the size of the form in the text header so I can encounter what the the size of the grade is so I can grab the handles of the form and move til I become the size that I desire and so alter the lawmaking accordingly.

Code:

Private Sub Score_Update_LocationChanged(sender Equally Object, due east As EventArgs) Handles Me.LocationChanged         Dim CurrentXX As Integer = Me.Left         Dim Currentyy Every bit Integer = Me.Top         Dim Currentww As Integer = Me.Width         Dim Currenthh As Integer = Me.Height         Me.Text = "Spots to be picked: X = " & CurrentXX & "Y = " & Currentyy & " Width: " & Currentww & " Height: " & Currenthh     End Sub

When I alter the width of my datagrdview in the datagridview properties to correspond to the width of the form, it doesn't match the width of the form. What I would similar to practice is to modify the width of the datagridview at runtime so I can see what size information technology is and change the width of the control to better fit the form. I have tried to google changing the width of the datagridview, but it comes back to changing a column width of a column. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

You lot should be using the Anchor belongings so that the filigree resizes automatically when the form resizes. I suggest that you follow the CodeBank link in my signature below and check out my thread on the Anchor & Dock properties.

Thanks for your reply. I wrote my question at 2:00 am and was not as clear as I should have been. What I was looking for was a way to aggrandize and/or contract a datagridview at runtime and so I could get the exact size that I wanted. I wanted to know if controls had resize handles like forms practice. Evidently not. The solution (for my needs) is to utilize trackbars. I set the size of the datagridview to what I think information technology volition exist in the form load sub along with minimums and maximums like so:

Code:

                          Private Sub Form1_Load(sender Every bit Object, due east As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load         Label2.Text = 250         Label3.Text = 500         TrackBar1.Minimum = 250         TrackBar1.Maximum = 1500         TrackBar1.Value = 250         TrackBar2.Minimum = 500         TrackBar2.Maximum = 1200         TrackBar2.Value = 500         End sub

Then I add together the following subs to change the pinnacle and width using the trackbars:

Code:

                          Private Sub Label2_TextChanged(sender Equally Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Label2.TextChanged         DataGridView1.Height = Val(Label2.Text)     End Sub     Private Sub Label3_TextChanged(sender As Object, e Every bit EventArgs) Handles Label3.TextChanged         DataGridView1.Width = Val(Label3.Text)     Finish Sub      Private Sub TrackBar1_Scroll(sender As Object, eastward Equally EventArgs) Handles TrackBar1.Gyre         Label2.Text = TrackBar1.Value     End Sub     Private Sub TrackBar2_Scroll(sender Equally Object, east As EventArgs) Handles TrackBar2.Scroll         Label3.Text = TrackBar2.Value     Stop Sub

and I can change the width and height at will until I get the verbal size of datagridview that I desire. Then I either alter the sizes in the form load or holding list of the control. I really wasn't looking for a way to resize the datagridview as I was resizing the course. I apologize for non asking the question properly.

Cheers again for your help. (Below is a screenshot of how I fix up the trackbars. )

Thank you for your reply. I wrote my question at ii:00 am and was not as clear as I should have been. What I was looking for was a way to expand and/or contract a datagridview at runtime so I could go the verbal size that I wanted. I wanted to know if controls had resize handles like forms practice. Evidently not. The solution (for my needs) is to apply trackbars. I set the size of the datagridview to what I recall it will be in the form load sub forth with minimums and maximums similar then:

Lawmaking:

                          Individual Sub Form1_Load(sender Equally Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load           Me.DataGridView1.Width = 250         Me.DataGridView1.Height = 500          Label2.Text = Me.DataGridView1.Width         Label3.Text = Me.DataGridView1.Height          TrackBar1.Minimum = Me.DataGridView1.Width         TrackBar1.Maximum = 1500         TrackBar1.Value = Me.DataGridView1.Width         TrackBar2.Minimum = Me.DataGridView1.Summit         TrackBar2.Maximum = 1200         TrackBar2.Value = Me.DataGridView1.Acme         End sub

Then I add the following subs to modify the height and width using the trackbars:

Code:

                          Private Sub Label2_TextChanged(sender As Object, eastward As EventArgs) Handles Label2.TextChanged         DataGridView1.Height = Val(Label2.Text)     End Sub     Private Sub Label3_TextChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Label3.TextChanged         DataGridView1.Width = Val(Label3.Text)     End Sub      Private Sub TrackBar1_Scroll(sender Equally Object, east As EventArgs) Handles TrackBar1.Roll         Label2.Text = TrackBar1.Value     Terminate Sub     Individual Sub TrackBar2_Scroll(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles TrackBar2.Scroll         Label3.Text = TrackBar2.Value     End Sub

and I can change the width and height at volition until I become the exact size of datagridview that I desire. Then I either modify the sizes in the class load or belongings list of the control. I really wasn't looking for a manner to resize the datagridview as I was resizing the form. I apologize for non asking the question properly.

Cheers again for your help. (Below is a screenshot of how I set the trackbars. )

Information technology's a radical solution using trackbars that mode. You could lose some of this coding...

Code:

Private Sub Label2_TextChanged(sender As Object, eastward As EventArgs) Handles Label2.TextChanged     DataGridView1.Peak = Val(Label2.Text) End Sub Individual Sub Label3_TextChanged(sender As Object, e Equally EventArgs) Handles Label3.TextChanged     DataGridView1.Width = Val(Label3.Text) End Sub  Private Sub TrackBar1_Scroll(sender As Object, eastward As EventArgs) Handles TrackBar1.Scroll     Label2.Text = TrackBar1.Value Cease Sub Individual Sub TrackBar2_Scroll(sender As Object, east As EventArgs) Handles TrackBar2.Coil     Label3.Text = TrackBar2.Value Finish Sub

Why catechumen the value to a String (in the Label.Text), and so catch the TextChanged and catechumen it to a double?

Lawmaking:

Private Sub TrackBar1_Scroll(sender As Object, due east Equally EventArgs) Handles TrackBar1.Scroll     Label2.Text = TrackBar1.Value     DataGridView1.Height = TrackBar1.Value End Sub Private Sub TrackBar2_Scroll(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles TrackBar2.Scroll     Label3.Text = TrackBar2.Value     DataGridView1.Width = TrackBar2.Value End Sub

To be honest, you need to do the calculations backside the scenes for the blazon of application y'all're developing...
