How to: Design a Windows Forms Layout that Responds Well to Localization

Creating forms that are ready to be localized greatly speeds development for international markets. You can use the TableLayoutPanel control to implement layouts that respond gracefully as controls resize due to changes in their Text property values.

Example

This form demonstrates how to create a layout that proportionally adjusts when you translate displayed string values into other languages. This process of translation is called localization. For more information, see Localization.

There is extensive support for this task in Visual Studio. Walkthrough: Creating a Layout That Adjusts Proportion for Localization
