Form.CenterToParent Method

Definition

Centers the position of the form within the bounds of the parent form.

C#
protected void CenterToParent();

Remarks

Do not call the CenterToParent method directly from your code. Instead, set the StartPosition property to CenterParent.

If the form or dialog is top-level, then CenterToParent centers the form with respect to the screen or desktop.
