Considering the title bar is nothing more than a text property... Not
really... however, this doesn't mean you can't create a quick and dirty
function to do it...
I would do something like
private _handlerCreated as boolean
private sub putCtlinTitleBar(ctl as system.windows.forms.control, optional
xoffset as integer = 5)
ctl.location = new System.Drawing.Point (me.left + xoffset, me.top)
if not (_handlerCreated) then
AddHandler me.SizeChanged, new EventHandler (AddressOf
myHandleFunction)
AddHandler me.LocationChanged, new EventHandler (AddressOf
myHandleFunction)
_handlerCreated = true
end if
end sub
By adding the event handlers you will automatically adjust for movement in
the form. And considering your button will "probably" be created a design
time, it will be disposed when the form is closed.
The _handleCreated is important, because you will just keep adding them,
which will just keep getting bigger and keep calling the event every time it
changes... Performance will be a problem =)
The handle function will move the button as needed... Just program it just
like the first function, or do it all in there... doesn't matter. =) This
is just an example of course. But I've done this with user controls before
and works great.
