RE: RichTextBox in a TableLayoutPanel won't shrink

Hi Dave,

It seems that you have set the size type of the column that contains the
RichTextBox to AutoSize. Am I right? If so, please set it to Percent.

FYI, to do this, select the TableLayoutPanel on the form and click the
'Edit Rows and Columns' link at the bottom of the Properties window or in
the smart tag panel of the DataGridView. In the Columns and Row Style
window, select 'Columns' in the 'Show' combobox and set the size type of
the column to Percent.

When the size type of a column/row is set to AutoSize, the size of the
column/row is determined by the size of the control it contains, i.e. the
column/row will expand when the control becomes bigger, and shrink when the
control becomes smaller. But it does not behave properly when the size of
the TableLayoutPanel control shrinks.

On the contrary, if the size of the column/row is set to Percent, the size
of the column/row is determined by the size of the TableLayoutPanel.

Hope this helps.
Please try my suggestion and let me know the result.


Sincerely,
Linda Liu
