scrollbar when user's got low resolution?

[livez]

Hello! I´ve got a problem with users losing the ability to view controls when their video resolution settings are set to a low resolution. The program is optimized for 1024*768, and when a user has for an example 800*600, some controls disappear. I´ve tried with making scrollbars appear in a situation like this with the property autoscroll set to true, but it doesn´t help. Anyone got a suggestion what I should do? /Regards

let the users change for 1024*768 :-D:):-D:):-D

your form's height and width should not more than 800x600:)

Yes that is one solution, but as I said the application is optimized for 1024*768, which also 99% of users will have. I´d prefer a solution with scrollbars appearing. I´m currently experimenting with autoscrollminsize property.

There is a concept of Docking controls in windows applications in C#. Whenever I make an application I never set its width or hard code any of such attributes. All I do is to dock all the controls in such a way that the controls adjust themselves whatever the resolution is. Then you always set their minimum and maximum properties so that the controls dont get too much distorted on different resolutions or on resizing. Hope it helps.
