SplitContainer.SplitterIncrement Property

Definition

Namespace:

System.Windows.Forms

Assembly:

System.Windows.Forms.dll

Gets or sets a value representing the increment of splitter movement in pixels.

public:
 property int SplitterIncrement { int get(); void set(int value); };

public int SplitterIncrement { get; set; }

member this.SplitterIncrement : int with get, set

Public Property SplitterIncrement As Integer

Property Value

Int32

An Int32 representing the increment of splitter movement in pixels. The default value is one pixel.

Exceptions

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

The value is less than one.

Examples

The following code example specifies that the vertical splitter moves in 10-pixel increments. Other basic properties of a vertical splitter are also shown. This example is part of a larger example provided for the SplitContainer class.

// Basic SplitContainer properties.
// This is a vertical splitter that moves in 10-pixel increments.
// This splitter needs no explicit Orientation property because Vertical is the default.
splitContainer1->Dock = System::Windows::Forms::DockStyle::Fill;
splitContainer1->ForeColor = System::Drawing::SystemColors::Control;
splitContainer1->Location = System::Drawing::Point( 0, 0 );
splitContainer1->Name = "splitContainer1";

// You can drag the splitter no nearer than 30 pixels from the left edge of the container.
splitContainer1->Panel1MinSize = 30;

// You can drag the splitter no nearer than 20 pixels from the right edge of the container.
splitContainer1->Panel2MinSize = 20;
splitContainer1->Size = System::Drawing::Size( 292, 273 );
splitContainer1->SplitterDistance = 79;

// This splitter moves in 10-pixel increments.
splitContainer1->SplitterIncrement = 10;
splitContainer1->SplitterWidth = 6;

// splitContainer1 is the first control in the tab order.
splitContainer1->TabIndex = 0;
splitContainer1->Text = "splitContainer1";

// When the splitter moves, the cursor changes shape.
splitContainer1->SplitterMoved += gcnew System::Windows::Forms::SplitterEventHandler( this, &Form1::splitContainer1_SplitterMoved );
splitContainer1->SplitterMoving += gcnew System::Windows::Forms::SplitterCancelEventHandler( this, &Form1::splitContainer1_SplitterMoving );

// Add a TreeView control to the left panel.
splitContainer1->Panel1->BackColor = System::Drawing::SystemColors::Control;

// Add a TreeView control to Panel1.
splitContainer1->Panel1->Controls->Add( treeView1 );
splitContainer1->Panel1->Name = "splitterPanel1";

// Controls placed on Panel1 support right-to-left fonts.
splitContainer1->Panel1->RightToLeft = System::Windows::Forms::RightToLeft::Yes;

// You can drag the splitter no nearer than 20 pixels from the right edge of the container.

// This splitter moves in 10-pixel increments.
splitContainer1.SplitterIncrement = 10;
splitContainer1.SplitterWidth = 6;
// splitContainer1 is the first control in the tab order.
splitContainer1.TabIndex = 0;
splitContainer1.Text = "splitContainer1";
// When the splitter moves, the cursor changes shape.
splitContainer1.SplitterMoved += new System.Windows.Forms.SplitterEventHandler(splitContainer1_SplitterMoved);
splitContainer1.SplitterMoving += new System.Windows.Forms.SplitterCancelEventHandler(splitContainer1_SplitterMoving);

// Add a TreeView control to the left panel.
splitContainer1.Panel1.BackColor = System.Drawing.SystemColors.Control;
// Add a TreeView control to Panel1.
splitContainer1.Panel1.Controls.Add(treeView1);
splitContainer1.Panel1.Name = "splitterPanel1";
// Controls placed on Panel1 support right-to-left fonts.
splitContainer1.Panel1.RightToLeft = System.Windows.Forms.RightToLeft.Yes;

Remarks

Use the SplitterIncrement property to create a snapping splitter that moves in larger increments than one pixel.
