Arranging controls inside a panel of WindowsFormHost - wpf


I have three controls inside a panel like below. I have to arrange one at center of the panel. and other two should place just left and right side of center one. I have tried like below. But getting all three controls are aligned to left. Please help to correct.

   <WindowsFormsHost  x:Name="windowsFormsHost1"  Grid.Row="5"   Grid.ColumnSpan="3"   Initialized="WindowsFormsHost_Initialized"  HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center"  >
        <wf:Panel x:Name="Panel_glcontrol" Dock="None" BackColor="yellow" >
            <wf:Panel.Controls>
                <opentk:GLControl x:Name="glControl" Width="450" Height="299"  Dock="None"   Visible="True" MouseMove="GlControl_MouseMove" MouseDown="GlControl_MouseDown"  Resize="glControl_Resize" Paint="glControl_Paint"  />
                <opentk:GLControl x:Name="glControl2"  Width="450" Height="299" Dock="None"    MouseDown="GlControl2_MouseDown" MouseMove="GlControl2_MouseMove"   Visible="True"  Resize="glControl2_Resize" Paint="glControl2_Paint"  />
                <opentk:GLControl x:Name="glControl3" Width="450" Dock="None" Height="299"  Visible="True"  MouseDown="GlControl3_MouseDown" MouseMove="GlControl3_MouseMove" Resize="glControl3_Resize" Paint="glControl3_Paint" />
            </wf:Panel.Controls>
        </wf:Panel>
    </WindowsFormsHost>

     glControl2.Location = new System.Drawing.Point((_Screenwidth / 2) - glControl2.Width / 2, (_Screenheight - glControl.Height) / 2);
     glControl.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(glControl2.Location.X - glControl.Width - 5, (_Screenheight - glControl2.Height) / 2 );          
     glControl3.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(glControl2.Location.X + glControl2.Width + 5, (_Screenheight - glControl3.Height) / 2 );

Solution

  • I have solved it by removing horizontal and vertical alignment of WindowsFormsHost. And then adding below function to relocate the controls.

         private void RelocateOpenGLs()
        {
            int PSBH = System.Windows.Forms.Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Height;
            int TaskBarHeight = PSBH - System.Windows.Forms.Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea.Height;//have to hide taskbar
    
            glControl2.Location = new System.Drawing.Point((_Screenwidth / 2) - glControl2.Width / 2, ((Panel_glcontrol.Height - glControl.Height) / 2) - TaskBarHeight);
            glControl.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(glControl2.Location.X - glControl.Width - 2, ((Panel_glcontrol.Height - glControl2.Height) / 2) - TaskBarHeight);
            glControl3.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(glControl2.Location.X + glControl2.Width + 2, ((Panel_glcontrol.Height - glControl3.Height) / 2) - TaskBarHeight);
    
        }
