Working with Docking Property
The Dock Control allows you to dock the control to any of the edges of the form of its container. It's another way to make your controls intact when you resize the form. When you resize the form, the control remains docked to the edge specified. The Dock property accepts a value from the System.Windows.Forms.DockStyle enumeration. The following are the values available in this enumeration.
| DockStyle | Description |
|---|---|
| Bottom | The control's bottom edge is docked to the bottom edge of its containing control. |
| Fill | All the edges of the control are docked to all the edges of its containing control and are sized appropriately. |
| Left | The control's left edge is docked to the left edge of its containing control. |
| Right | The control's right edge is docked to the right edge of its containing control. |
| None | The control is not docked. |
| Top | The control's top edge is docked to the top edge of its containing control. |
