Re: Scrolling Control Container
Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry
Sorry for answering my own question but I figured someone else might find
the information useful.
I ended up using a panel control with AutoScroll set to true and then
overriding the WndProc for the control so that I could handle the
WM_NCCALCSIZE message and hide the scrollbars.
private const int WM_NCCALCSIZE = 0x0083;
private const int SB_BOTH = 3;
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
private static extern int ShowScrollBar(IntPtr hWnd, int wBar, int bShow);
protected override void WndProc(ref Message m)
{
switch(m.Msg)
{
case WM_NCCALCSIZE:
ShowScrollBar(m.HWnd, SB_BOTH, 0 /*false*/);
break;
}
base.WndProc(ref m);
}
Seems to work for my needs.
