System.Windows.Forms
Assembly:
System.Windows.Forms.dll

Occurs when the splitter control is in the process of moving. SplitterMoving has been replaced by SplitterMoving and is provided only for compatibility with previous versions.

public:
 event System::Windows::Forms::SplitterEventHandler ^ SplitterMoving;
public event System.Windows.Forms.SplitterEventHandler SplitterMoving;
public event System.Windows.Forms.SplitterEventHandler? SplitterMoving;
member this.SplitterMoving : System.Windows.Forms.SplitterEventHandler 
Public Custom Event SplitterMoving As SplitterEventHandler

Event Type

SplitterEventHandler

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of this member. In the example, an event handler reports on the occurrence of the SplitterMoving event. This report helps you to learn when the event occurs and can assist you in debugging. To report on multiple events or on events that occur frequently, consider replacing MessageBox.Show with Console.WriteLine or appending the message to a multiline TextBox.

To run the example code, paste it into a project that contains an instance of type Splitter named Splitter1. Then ensure that the event handler is associated with the SplitterMoving event.

private void Splitter1_SplitterMoving(Object sender, SplitterEventArgs e) {

System.Text.StringBuilder messageBoxCS = new System.Text.StringBuilder();
messageBoxCS.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "X", e.X );
messageBoxCS.AppendLine();
messageBoxCS.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "Y", e.Y );
messageBoxCS.AppendLine();
messageBoxCS.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "SplitX", e.SplitX );
messageBoxCS.AppendLine();
messageBoxCS.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "SplitY", e.SplitY );
messageBoxCS.AppendLine();
MessageBox.Show(messageBoxCS.ToString(), "SplitterMoving Event" );
}

Private Sub Splitter1_SplitterMoving(sender as Object, e as SplitterEventArgs) _ 
     Handles Splitter1.SplitterMoving

    Dim messageBoxVB as New System.Text.StringBuilder()
    messageBoxVB.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "X", e.X)
    messageBoxVB.AppendLine()
    messageBoxVB.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "Y", e.Y)
    messageBoxVB.AppendLine()
    messageBoxVB.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "SplitX", e.SplitX)
    messageBoxVB.AppendLine()
    messageBoxVB.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "SplitY", e.SplitY)
    messageBoxVB.AppendLine()
    MessageBox.Show(messageBoxVB.ToString(),"SplitterMoving Event")

End Sub

Remarks

You can create an event handler for the SplitterMoving event to perform resize validation in your application. For example, if a Splitter control is docked to the edges of a TreeView control and a ListView control, you can write code in the SplitterMoved event to determine if the minimum and/or maximum size for the TreeView and ListView controls has been exceeded and restrict the resizing of the controls to their minimum or maximum size.
