I'm dynamically adding rows into my TableLayoutPanel but I just can't configure there height.
The code might look long, but it's a very simple one.
An explanation about the code:
The code creates a TableLayoutPanel and set it's properties. After that, the code creates Pictureboxes and Labels according to how many movies there are in the database. After creating a Picturebox and a Label the code puts both of them in a Panel and then the code inserts the Panel into the TableLayoutPanel. The problem is the row's height.
The output:

Here is the code I'm using:
Dim movieN As Integer = MoviesDataSet.movies.Rows.Count
Dim tablePanel As New TableLayoutPanel
With tablePanel
.Size = New Point(Me.ClientRectangle.Width - 10, Me.ClientRectangle.Bottom - 55)
.ColumnCount = 4
.GrowStyle = TableLayoutPanelGrowStyle.AddRows
.AutoScroll = True
.Margin = New System.Windows.Forms.Padding(0)
.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(5, 50)
.CellBorderStyle = TableLayoutPanelCellBorderStyle.Inset
.ColumnStyles.Add(New ColumnStyle(SizeType.Percent, 25.0!))
.ColumnStyles.Add(New ColumnStyle(SizeType.Percent, 25.0!))
.ColumnStyles.Add(New ColumnStyle(SizeType.Percent, 25.0!))
.ColumnStyles.Add(New ColumnStyle(SizeType.Percent, 25.0!))
.Anchor = AnchorStyles.Bottom Or AnchorStyles.Left Or AnchorStyles.Right Or AnchorStyles.Top
End With
For Each MovieRow As DataRow In MoviesDataSet.Tables("movies").Rows
'define two new controls to be added
Dim myLabel As New Label
Dim myPicture As New PictureBox
Dim container As New Panel
'set the properties of the new controls
myLabel.Text = MovieRow("movieName")
myLabel.AutoSize = True
myLabel.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(30, 110)
With myPicture
.Image = Image.FromFile(MovieRow("moviePhoto"))
.Tag = MovieRow("ID")
.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(100, 100)
.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.StretchImage
.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(2, 2)
.Cursor = Cursors.Hand
End With
'here we add the controls to a layout panel to
'manage the positioning of the controls
With container
.Dock = DockStyle.Fill
.Margin = New System.Windows.Forms.Padding(0)
.Controls.Add(myPicture)
.Controls.Add(myLabel)
End With
With tablePanel.Controls
.Add(container)
End With
'here we add a handler for the picture boxs click event
AddHandler myPicture.Click, AddressOf MyPictureClickEvent
Next
Me.Controls.Add(tablePanel)
End Sub
Thanks in advance!
Try This :
For Each RS As RowStyle In tablePanel.RowStyles
RS.SizeType = SizeType.Absolute
RS.Height = 180
Next
