I want to create a .NET Form at runtime, add buttons and other controls

  • 0

I want to create a .NET Form at runtime, add buttons and other controls to that (also at runtime), and then be able to generate a something.designer.cs file from that form (which can then be added to a C# solution and compiled).

What I want to do is very similar to what the WinForm designer does. But instead of having a drag/drop interface for the user, I want to dynamically build the Form/Controls myself at runtime.

I was thinking I could just reuse what the WinForm designer is doing.

Is that possible?
