Examples
The following code example uses the derived class, Panel. The example docks a button in a panel control and cycles through the ScrollableControl.DockPaddingEdges properties, setting each individually on the click of the button. This code requires that a Panel control and a Button have been instantiated on a form, and a class-level member variable named myCounter
has been declared as a 32-bit signed integer. This code should be called on the Click event of the button.
void SetDockPadding()
{
// Dock the button in the panel.
button1->Dock = System::Windows::Forms::DockStyle::Fill;
// Reset the counter if it is greater than 5.
if ( myCounter > 5 )
{
myCounter = 0;
}
/* Set the appropriate DockPadding and display
which one was set on the button face. */
switch ( myCounter )
{
case 0:
panel1->DockPadding->All = 0;
button1->Text = "Start";
break;
case 1:
panel1->DockPadding->Top = 10;

break;
case 5:
panel1->DockPadding->All = 20;
button1->Text = "All";
break;
}
myCounter++;
}
private void SetDockPadding()
{
// Dock the button in the panel.

// Reset the counter if it is greater than 5.

{

}
/* Set the appropriate DockPadding and display
which one was set on the button face. */
