Disable Form Resize 2

[jalbao]

I'm trying to disable a form from being resizable. The best I can come up with, is to define the minsize and maxsize of the form. All though this method works fine, it strikes me as odd that .net wouldn't have a built in property for a form that enables/disables a form from being resized.

I'd like to hear some feedback on what "trix" some of you advanced dev'ers do to keep a form from being resized.

thx

I have never used it but try setting form.MaximumSize and form.MinimumSize to the same size.

Try:

Me.FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.FixedDialog

Try setting the FormBorderStyle property of the form to FixedToolWindow.

Forgot to mention- with the above methods, you could also just click the maximize button or even if there isn't one, you could right-click the title bar- if you set
MaximizeBox = false
both of these options will be disabled. That should cover all the bases

Nice! Thanks for all the replies. I never thought to look in the border style props..

It turns out that Me.FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.FixedDialog is exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks

dont forget to set SizeGripStyle to hide
also disable maximize box as mentioned earlier
