tabpage-like

[Rasble]

Is there an easy way to display different panels and their child controls at the same position on the winform
Each panel and its child controls will be shown by clicking different buttons

{this way all the buttons act like tabpage header and each panel is the tabpage itself}

Thanks

they can be set to false or true for their visibility once a button is clicked

You are welcome!
Bye!

Simple use different panels all in the same size, and prepare them just as you need addig childs to them .... , then change the panles location so they all have the same left/top position.
klicking your buttons simple change visibility of the panels.

My Question is: WHY ??? ;) Tab Controls are nice and have all your needs included.

Additional you will get a user nterface which has a known outfit and people will feel comfortable in using it.

All the times trying to build 'my own personal outfit' sometimes leads to UI that are diffficult to handle andcouldn't be used without a long helpfile. UI's should always be some sort of selfexplaining
