Dynamic Control Creation At Runtime?

Author	Message
Gabriel Eng #1 / 7	Dynamic Control Creation At Runtime? Hi there. I have some controls I would like to create at runtime. I have tried the following code without success: Button but = new Button(); this.Controls.Add (but); The load event on the controls fires, but they never physicially show on the form. What am I missing? Thanks in advance. -Gabe

Tim Smelse #4 / 7	Dynamic Control Creation At Runtime? This works for me on Beta 2: Button btn = new Button(); btn.Name = "btnNew"; btn.Text = "A New Button"; btn.Location = new Point(20, 20); btn.Size = new Size(100, 30); btn.Click += new EventHandler(OnNewButtonClick); this.Controls.Add(btn); 141.com says...

Mario Zú?i #5 / 7	Dynamic Control Creation At Runtime? I did that too. All your controls must be added to the Controls Array in the form.

Gabriel Eng #6 / 7	Dynamic Control Creation At Runtime? Well... this code works for Panels: Button btn = new Button(); btn.Name = "btnNew"; btn.Text = "A New Button"; btn.Location = new Point(20, 20); btn.Size = new Size(100, 30); btn.Visible = true; btn.Click += new EventHandler(OnNewButtonClick); panel2.Controls.Add(btn); But it doe not work if i add directly to the Control Array of the form it'se (form.Controls.Add(btn). The button will not show. Is there something special you have to do if you're creating the control on the form itself? I mean I suppose i could layer a panel over the form.... but there has to be a better way....

Could you post (or email me) a small, compilable project that demonstrates the problem? I'd be happy to take a look and see if I can help you out... -- Tomas Restrepo
