In the standard windows installer there is a divider between the control buttons on the bottom and the main part of the form. Does anyone know how this would be done in winforms/.net? I’ve tried fiddling around with the border settings on Panel controls etc, but haven’t been able to get the same result…

    I used Spy++ to figure this out a while ago and discovered that it’s just a standard Win32 Static control — the equivalent of the WinForms Label. Steps for getting the same effect:

    1. Add a Label control to your form.
    2. Set Label Text to empty.
    3. Set BorderStyle to Fixed3D.
    4. Set AutoSize to false.
    5. Set Height to 2 (most easily accomplished by typing 2 into the Size/Height field under Label Properties).
