Hi guys, done it again, got myself stuck ... this time on the following issue:
I have made a user control that more or less simulates a grid.
You can set the amount of columns,rows, cell size, colors etc. This works fine.
This user controls simulates a grid by placing checkboxes on the usercontrol. The checkbox contains all the existing events and properties that I need.
But when I size it to the maximum dimentions that I need (100 rows by 100 columns) this will create 10.000 controls,
besides that it is slow .... even with suspendlayout .... after about 5000 it looks like I reached the maximum. No more handles can be obtained ... and generates an error.
Is there a solution for this?
What is the maximum amount of controls you can put on a usercontrol or any control?
Anybody got bright ideas to obtain simular functionality?
(a grid where one or more cells can be selected and that can receive drag-drop events and host images)
Thanx for any help,
The gap between theory and practice is not as wide in theory as it is in practice.
