Hi, friends,

I am using .net 2005 to develop a window form application. It has about 15
buttons (with icon on them) which need to be visible/invisible dynamically
based on user's selection and rights.

I know I can create 15 buttons and handle them individually, including
moving their positions around if its neighbor buttons are invisible. But, do
we have a better appoach to do this? Any reference paper or sample code?

Thanks a lot.
 
Depending on why you're "invisibling" your buttons, you may want to
reconsider. I had some forms with buttons that appeared and disappeared
based on the authority of the user, but it was confusing for the users to
have what looked to them like different forms. So I changed it to
enable/disable them instead.

If you really want to change the visibility of your buttons, then you're
right, you have to create them and place them yourself.
