Question

I have MSVC 2010 and I need to put a groupbox inside a groupbox.
It does not work when I tried to use GUI editor, and it does not work when I use:

groupbox1.Controls.Add(groupbox2);
groupbox.Visible = true;

If I use the code above the second box just does not display.
If I use the GUI editor the second box just does not show inside the first one.

Can anybody help please?

Answer 1

Change child control location:

groupBox1.Controls.Add(groupBox2);
groupBox2.Location = new Point(10, 10);

from Control.Location (MSDN):

Gets or sets the coordinates of the upper-left corner of the control relative to the upper-left corner of its container.
