Public Property Anchor As AnchorStyles

Property Value

One of the AnchorStyles values.

Attributes

Exceptions

The value is not one of the AnchorStyles values.

Remarks

Use the Anchor property to define how a ToolStripItem is automatically resized as its parent control is resized. Anchoring a control to its parent control ensures that the anchored edges remain in the same position relative to the edges of the parent control when the parent control is resized.

Note

The Anchor and Dock properties are mutually exclusive. Only one can be set at a time, and the last one set takes precedence.
