How to set a columnspan in tableLayoutPanel


I am using a tableLayoutPanel which consist of two rows. In first row I want two columns, and in second row I only need one column. How can I do this?


Solution

  • With the designer: put a control in the 2nd row and set its ColumnSpan property to 2.

    In code:

        public Form1() {
            InitializeComponent();
            var button = new Button();
            button.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
            tableLayoutPanel1.Controls.Add(button);
            tableLayoutPanel1.SetCellPosition(button, new TableLayoutPanelCellPosition(0, 1));
            tableLayoutPanel1.SetColumnSpan(button, 2);
        }
