Examples
The following code example uses the GetRowSpan and SetRowSpan methods to set the width of a Button control in a TableLayoutPanel.
private void toggleSpanBtn_Click(
System.Object sender,
System.EventArgs e)
{
Control c = this.TableLayoutPanel1.GetControlFromPosition(0, 0);
if ( c != null )
{
int xSpan = this.TableLayoutPanel1.GetColumnSpan(c);
int ySpan = this.TableLayoutPanel1.GetRowSpan(c);
if (xSpan>1)
{
xSpan = 1;
ySpan = 1;
}
else
{
xSpan = 2;
ySpan = 2;
}
this.TableLayoutPanel1.SetColumnSpan(c, xSpan);
this.TableLayoutPanel1.SetRowSpan(c, ySpan);
}
}
Private Sub toggleSpanBtn_Click( _
ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles toggleSpanBtn.Click
Dim c As Control = Me.TableLayoutPanel1.GetControlFromPosition(0, 0)
If c IsNot Nothing Then
Dim xSpan As Integer = Me.TableLayoutPanel1.GetColumnSpan(c)
Dim ySpan As Integer = Me.TableLayoutPanel1.GetRowSpan(c)
If xSpan > 1 Then
xSpan = 1
ySpan = 1
Else
xSpan = 2
ySpan = 2
End If
Me.TableLayoutPanel1.SetColumnSpan(c, xSpan)
Me.TableLayoutPanel1.SetRowSpan(c, ySpan)
End If
End Sub
Remarks
Row spanning is often useful for positioning a control that is considerably taller than its peers.
This method is called by the RowSpan
property, which the panel adds to its child controls at design time.
