I want to place two forms next to each other in C #

Question

I have one form that opens up another form.

What I want to do is position the newly opened form on the right (right) in an already visible form.

So I need to put the new form where the current form ends (correct me if not).

So I will need to do something like:

newform.Left = this.endposition.right; 

The endpos property is what I just compiled (pseudocode).

How to get the end position on the right side of the current form?

EDIT

I tried several solutions, but so far none of them have worked.

I always get the same result:

Why is this happening http://s1.postimage.org/f4fsbc6pa/why_o_why.png

I tried the following codes:

 newform.Left = this.Right + SystemInformation.BorderSize.Width; newform.Left = this.Right + (SystemInformation.BorderSize.Width * 2); newform.SetDesktopLocation(this.Location.X + this.Size.Width, this.Location.Y); 

Eclyps19 suggested just adding a few pixels to accommodate the new shape, although I'm not sure if the border will be the same for each system.

Answer 1

This works for me:

  Form1 nForm = new Form1(); nForm.Show(); nForm.SetDesktopLocation(this.Location.X + this.Size.Width, this.Location.Y); 

Answer 2

Try

 newform.Left = oldform.Right + SystemInformation.BorderSize.Width; 

This should add the width (in pixels) of the border to the oldform.Right value. You can replace (or add) SystemInformation.BorderSize.Width with any integer that you would like to your liking.

Answer 3

Your code works fine, but you just have to use it AFTER your new Form.Show () method.
