Sizer for WinForms

Add Resolution-Independent Resizing to Your WinForms Applications

Create resolution-independent applications without writing any code with ComponentOne Sizer™ for WinForms. The C1Sizer control is a container control with a powerful grid layout manager that extends the basic layout capabilities provided by the .NET Framework (Dock and Anchor properties). Define a grid made up of bands and then add controls that snap to these bands with the C1Sizer control. When the C1Sizer control is resized, the bands are automatically recalculated, and contained controls move automatically to their new positions. You can set up bands at design time and configure them to act as splitters or to keep their size constant when the control is resized. With support for gradient backgrounds and rounded corners, Sizer for WinForms makes it easy to create great-looking applications.

Sizer for WinForms also provides the C1SizerLight component that automatically resizes all controls on the form when the form is resized. It is the easiest way to create resolution-independent, resizable forms.

Highlights

Arrange Controls on the Form with Ease

The C1Sizer control act like a piece of graph paper where each control will occupy one or more of the grid boxes on the form. The graph allows you to neatly layout the controls on the form. You have the flexibility to set up the grid before or after you create the child controls.

Create a Gradient Background

With the easy-to-use C1Sizer Gradient Editor that is accessible from the "Edit Gradient" SmartTag, you can quickly add a gradient to the sizer panel and customize the gradient settings.

Update Your Form with Rounded Corners

The new Border property gives you the flexibility to add rounded corners to the sizer and modify the color, thickness, and more.
